A 1687 New Jersey General Assembly · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires State Chief Diversity Officer to conduct study of utilization of disabled veteran-owned businesses in State procurement process.

This bill requires New Jersey's State Chief Diversity Officer to study whether disabled veteran-owned businesses are being used fairly in state government contracts. The study must determine if there's a gap between how many such businesses are available and how many actually receive state contracts, and it must be completed within 12 months. The officer will then submit a report with findings and recommendations to the Governor and Legislature, and may later provide follow-up reports tracking progress on implementing those recommendations.
