SB 1028 - This act makes various changes regarding procurement. The act:
(1) Allows the state to use the reverse auction procurement method, wherein bidders would openly compete against each other through real-time electronic bidding with the award being made to the lowest bidder;
(2) Modifies the recycling preference law to remove provisions that have expired; and
(3) Removes sections concerning vendor rotation and purchasing consolidation.
The act is similar to SB 660 (2003).
