A 5268 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes expanded use of electronic procurement for public bidding conducted by county college.

This bill allows New Jersey county colleges to use online platforms for public bidding processes, expanding beyond current requirements that mandate newspaper advertisements. It permits colleges to publish bid notices, accept electronic submissions, and send revisions via email or digital services, while still requiring newspaper publication as an option. The change applies to all procurement contracts and surplus property sales managed by county colleges. The bill does not eliminate newspaper requirements but adds digital methods to increase accessibility and efficiency for bidders.
