S 2473 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Provides bidder is ineligible to receive new State contract award if current contract is in dispute by State.

S 2473 would prevent contractors from winning new New Jersey state contracts if they have an unresolved dispute over an existing state contract. Specifically, bidders would be ineligible if they failed to complete work (as determined by the State Contract Manager), if the current contract is incomplete or on hold, or if litigation involves their performance. The bill aims to ensure contractors resolve existing issues before securing new state projects. This applies to all state contracts governed by Chapter 34 of Title 52.
