All relating generally to procurement by state spending units and local fiscal bodies of technology and technical infrastructure products and services
HB 4400 updates procurement rules for technology and technical infrastructure purchases by West Virginia state agencies and local governments. It raises the threshold requiring competitive bidding for technology services from $25,000 to $250,000, allowing agencies to handle smaller tech purchases internally. The bill also permits local governments to enter multi-year technology service agreements with proper justification and requires reporting if multiple contracts with the same vendor exceed limits within 12 months. These changes aim to streamline tech procurement while maintaining oversight for larger purchases.
