HB860

Authorizes the use of fillable form to receive electronic public bids

Complete·5/29/26

Authorizes public entities to use fillable electronic bid forms for public work bids.

Louisiana HB860 allows public entities to use fillable electronic bid forms for public work bids, provided the forms include all text and fields from the Louisiana Uniform Bid Form. It prohibits adding extra requirements or input fields unless legally mandated. Changes to a bid before submission must be initialed by the bidder and are binding. The bill retains present law and clarifies that deviations in formatting from the standard form are not violations.
