STATE PROCUREMENT – Amends, repeals, and adds to existing law regarding the procurement of property by the State of Idaho.

This bill updates Idaho's state procurement laws by clarifying definitions, revising the roles of purchasing officials, and modifying how contracts are awarded and managed. It directly affects state agencies, the Division of Purchasing, and vendors who sell goods or services to the state government. Key changes include new definitions for terms like "multiple-award contracts" and "environmental, social, and governance standards," a preference for recycled paper products, and stricter rules against frivolous challenges to procurement decisions. The bill also adjusts provisions related to vendor disqualification, ethics requirements, and the process for appealing contract awards.
