Montana SB564 revises government transparency laws by requiring the Department of Administration to manage a website for public access to procurement.
Montana SB564 revises government transparency laws by mandating the Department of Administration to create and manage a website to enhance public access to and transparency of state procurement transactions. The website must include details about each payment made by the department or a purchasing agency, such as the name of the contractor, the purpose for which the payment was made, and the amount of the payment. Vendors must pay an application fee of $1 when submitting a bid or proposal, which will offset the costs of administering the transparency website.
