What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

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.
