This bill raises the threshold at which South Dakota government agencies must publicly advertise for bids on construction projects from $50,000 to $100,000. Agencies will still need to advertise for bids on supply and service contracts over $25,000, but public improvement projects under $100,000 (instead of the previous $50,000) can now be awarded without the formal bidding process.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
