State management: purchasing; policies and procedures for selecting architectural services, engineering services, and land surveying services for state contracts; modify. Amends sec. 237b of 1984 PA 431 (MCL 18.1237b).

This bill updates Michigan's rules for how state agencies select architects, engineers, and land surveyors for projects costing $250,000 or more between 2025 and 2032. Under the new requirements, agencies must publish a notice inviting firms to apply, evaluate their qualifications and past performance, and rank the most qualified candidates before negotiating a contract. The process allows for discussions with top firms but mandates moving to the next ranked firm if a satisfactory agreement cannot be reached with the first choice. Agencies can skip these steps only in emergencies or for energy conservation projects, and they must submit annual reports to the legislature detailing project outcomes and innovations.
