An Act relative to Chapter 30B procurement through RFPs and cooperative contracts

Summary

The bill changes Chapter 30B so that any state, municipal or regional school‑district purchase between $10,000 and $50,000 (or $100,000 for schools) must obtain written quotes from at least three vendors and keep detailed records. It also clarifies that contracts go to the lowest qualified bid unless a special procurement method is used, and it lets public procurement units join cooperative purchasing agreements that must remain fully competitive.
