AI Summary

  • Increases the bid advertising threshold for State construction contracts (erection, construction, alteration, or repair of public buildings or facilities) from $25,000 to $150,000

  • Allows smaller construction and repair projects under $150,000 to be informally bid by the using agency without full public advertising, reducing time and costs

  • Updates statutory references from the Division of "Building" and Construction to the Division of "Property Management" and Construction

  • The threshold remains subject to adjustment by the Governor every five years based on the index rate, rounded to the nearest $1,000

  • Current adjusted threshold prior to this bill is $71,000 (set in 2021); this bill would more than double that amount to $150,000
