What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under current law, the Department of Administration (DOA) is required to promulgate rules for the procurement of contractual services by DOA and its designated agents. This bill requires that, if those rules allow bidders to protest or appeal decisions regarding the award of a service contract and if DOA or its agent receives a timely notice of intent to protest or appeal a decision or a timely protest or appeal, DOA or its agent may not proceed with contractual services until a decision is made on the protest or appeal. Under the bill, this prohibition does not apply if the secretary of administration provides a written determination that proceeding with the contractual services without delay is necessary to protect public health or safety.
