Revise government transparency laws

This bill requires Montana's Department of Administration to create and manage a public website displaying detailed state procurement transaction data, including contractor names, payment purposes, and amounts for all payments made by state agencies. Vendors submitting bids or proposals must pay a $1 application fee to cover website costs, as specified in amended sections 18-4-126 and 18-4-302 of Montana law. The website will provide transparency for public access to procurement records, replacing current requirements under existing statutes. This directly affects state purchasing agencies (which must post data), vendors (which must pay the fee), and the public (which gains new access to procurement information).
