WV HB2637

Raises the competitive bidding threshold for government construction contracts from $25,000 to $50,000, allowing state and local governments to award contracts below that amount without soliciting competitive bids

Applies to the State of West Virginia, all political subdivisions, municipalities, and county boards of education

Maintains existing requirements for construction projects above the new $50,000 threshold, including bid bonds, performance bonds, and awarding contracts to the lowest qualified responsible bidder

Keeps the $500,000 cap on open-ended repair and maintenance contracts and the $250,000 threshold requiring subcontractor disclosure lists unchanged
