Existing law creates the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority, with various powers and duties relative to transportation projects and services and the operation of public transit in the County of Santa Clara. Other existing law, the Local Agency Public Construction Act, requires contracts of the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority for the purchase of supplies, equipment, and materials to be let to the lowest responsible bidder or to the bidder who submits a proposal that provides the best value, as defined, if the amount of the contract exceeds $150,000 and requires the authority to obtain a minimum of 3 quotations for those contracts between $3,500 and $150,000.
This bill would increase the first threshold for bidding to apply for contracts that exceed $200,000 and would require the authority to obtain the minimum of 3 quotations for contracts between $5,000 and $200,000.
