SB5176 implements prompt pay recommendations for public works projects in Washington.

SB5176 amends Washington's Revised Code to establish prompt payment timelines for public works projects. It mandates that state or municipal payments to contractors or subcontractors must be made within 30 days of receiving a properly completed invoice. The bill also requires contracts to include payment cutoff dates, invoice due dates, review time frames, and notice of potential payment withholdings. If payments are not made on time, interest accrues at one percent per month. The bill repeals previous sections related to payment of undisputed claims and civil actions for violations.
