S 2040 Massachusetts Senate · 193rd Legislature (2023-2024)

An Act relative to transparency in selecting a public construction alternative delivery method

This bill requires the Inspector General to inform public agencies about different construction delivery options before they choose one. The law mandates that officials provide a list of available methods, such as design-bid-build and design-build, along with a comparison of the costs for each option. This process aims to increase transparency in how public projects are planned and contracted. The change directly affects state and local government entities responsible for overseeing public construction projects.
