H.D. 1
S.D. 1
Honorable Donna Mercado Kim
President of the Senate
Twenty-Eighth State Legislature
Regular Session of 2015
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committees on Judiciary and Labor and Ways and Means, to which was referred H.B. No. 1127, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO PROCUREMENT,"
beg leave to report as follows:
The purpose and intent of this measure is to require the State Procurement Office to provide mandatory procurement training and any additional training as the chief procurement officers may determine for all state and county government employees that are charged with procurement.
Your Committees received testimony in support of this measure from the State Procurement Office, Hawaii Procurement Institute, Building Industry Association of Hawaii, Hawaii Alliance of Nonprofit Organizations, and Ulupono Initiative.
Your Committees find that proper training is essential to ensure effective procurements. A mandatory statewide training and development program will promote uniform procurement practices and consistent application of the procurement code.
As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Judiciary and Labor and Ways and Means that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1127, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, and recommend that it pass Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committees on Judiciary and Labor and Ways and Means,
