THIRTY-FIRST LEGISLATURE, 2022
STATE OF HAWAII

A BILL FOR AN ACT

RELATING TO JOINT CONTRACTOR OR SUBCONTRACTOR LISTING.

BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:

SECTION 1. The legislature finds that the State's procurement process requires clear legislative direction to award contracts to responsible bidders and to minimize protests on bids due to the subcontractor listing requirement under section 103D-302(b), Hawaii Revised Statutes.

SECTION 2. Section 103D-302, Hawaii Revised Statutes, is amended by amending subsection (b) to read as follows:

"(b) An invitation for bids shall be issued, and shall include a purchase description and all contractual terms and conditions applicable to the procurement. If the invitation for bids is for construction, it shall specify that all bids that include the engagement of a joint contractor or subcontractor in the performance of the contract shall include the name of each person or firm to be engaged by the bidder as a joint contractor or subcontractor [in the performance of the contract] and the nature and scope of the work to be performed by each[.]; provided that the name and information of the joint contractor or subcontractor who is not required to be licensed under chapter 444 in the performance of the contract are not to be required to be included in bids. Construction bids that do not comply with this requirement may be accepted if acceptance is in the best interest of the State and the value of the work to be performed by the joint contractor or subcontractor is equal to or less than one per cent of the total bid amount."

SECTION 3. Statuatory material to be repealsed is bracketed and stricken. New statutory material is underscored.

SECTION 4. This Act shall take effect upon its approval.
