Creates new provisions relating to progressive design-build contracts

Summary

The bill lets the state’s Commissioner of Administration contract directly with nonprofit organizations for supplies and join cooperative purchasing agreements with nonprofit groups made up of local governments. It also creates detailed procedures for political subdivisions to use design‑build and progressive design‑build methods, including qualifications‑based selection and the use of design‑criteria consultants. The changes are intended to give the state more purchasing flexibility and to clarify how large construction projects are awarded.
