8 follows:
9 1. Except as otherwise expressly provided by an act of the legislature
10 or by a local law adopted prior to September first, nineteen hundred
11 fifty-three, all contracts for public work involving an expenditure of
12 more than thirty-five thousand dollars which are subject to the
13 provisions of article eight of the labor law, and all purchase contracts
14 involving an expenditure of more than twenty thousand dollars, shall be
15 awarded by the appropriate officer, board or agency of a political
16 subdivision or of any district therein including but not limited to a
17 soil conservation district to the lowest responsible bidder furnishing
18 the required security after advertisement for sealed bids in the manner
19 provided by this section, provided, however, that purchase contracts
20 (including contracts for service work, but excluding any purchase
21 contracts necessary for the completion of a public works contract pursu-
22 ant to article eight of the labor law) may be awarded on the basis of
23 best value, as defined in section one hundred sixty-three of the state
24 finance law, to a responsive and responsible bidder or offerer in the
25 manner provided by this section except that in a political subdivision
26 other than a city with a population of one million inhabitants or more
27 or any district, board or agency with jurisdiction exclusively therein
28 the use of best value for awarding a purchase contract or purchase
29 contracts must be authorized by local law or, in the case of a district
30 corporation, school district or board of cooperative educational
31 services, by rule, regulation or resolution adopted at a public meeting.
32 Such officer, board, or agency may require responsible bidders and their
33 subcontractors to participate in apprenticeship training programs
34 approved by the department of labor. In any case where a responsible
35 bidder's or responsible offerer's gross price is reducible by an allow-
36 ance for the value of used machinery, equipment, apparatus or tools to
37 be traded in by a political subdivision, the gross price shall be
38 reduced by the amount of such allowance, for the purpose of determining
39 the best value. In cases where two or more responsible bidders furnish-
40 ing the required security submit identical bids as to price, such offi-
41 cer, board or agency may award the contract to any of such bidders. Such
42 officer, board or agency may, in [his or her] their or its discretion,
43 reject all bids or offers and readvertise for new bids or offers in the
44 manner provided by this section. In determining whether a purchase is an
45 expenditure within the discretionary threshold amounts established by
46 this subdivision, the officer, board or agency of a political subdivi-
47 sion or of any district therein shall consider the reasonably expected
48 aggregate amount of all purchases of the same commodities, services or
49 technology to be made within the twelve-month period commencing on the
50 date of purchase. Purchases of commodities, services or technology
51 shall not be artificially divided for the purpose of satisfying the
52 discretionary buying thresholds established by this subdivision. A
53 change to or a renewal of a discretionary purchase shall not be permit-
54 ted if the change or renewal would bring the reasonably expected aggre-
55 gate amount of all purchases of the same commodities, services or tech-
56 nology from the same provider within the twelve-month period commencing
S. 2298 5
1 on the date of the first purchase to an amount greater than the discre-
2 tionary buying threshold amount. For purposes of this section, "sealed
3 bids" and "sealed offers", as that term applies to purchase contracts,
4 (including contracts for service work, but excluding any purchase
5 contracts necessary for the completion of a public works contract pursu-
6 ant to article eight of the labor law) shall include bids and offers
7 submitted in an electronic format including submission of the statement
8 of non-collusion required by section one hundred three-d of this arti-
9 cle, provided that the governing board of the political subdivision or
10 district, by resolution, has authorized the receipt of bids and offers
11 in such format. Submission in electronic format may, for technology
12 contracts only, be required as the sole method for the submission of
13 bids and offers. Provided however, the appropriate officer, board or
14 agency of a city with a population of one million inhabitants or more,
15 or any district, board or agency with jurisdiction exclusively within
16 such city, may authorize or require bids and offers for any contract to
17 be submitted in an electronic format. Bids and offers submitted in an
18 electronic format shall be transmitted by bidders and offerers to the
19 receiving device designated by the political subdivision or district.
20 Any method used to receive electronic bids and offers shall comply with
21 article three of the state technology law, and any rules and regulations
22 promulgated and guidelines developed thereunder and, at a minimum, must
23 (a) document the time and date of receipt of each bid and offer received
24 electronically; (b) authenticate the identity of the sender; (c) ensure
25 the security of the information transmitted; and (d) ensure the confi-
26 dentiality of the bid or offer until the time and date established for
27 the opening of bids or offers. The timely submission of an electronic
28 bid or offer in compliance with instructions provided for such
29 submission in the advertisement for bids or offers and/or the specifica-
30 tions shall be the responsibility solely of each bidder or offerer or
31 prospective bidder or offerer. No political subdivision or district
32 therein shall incur any liability from delays of or interruptions in the
33 receiving device designated for the submission and receipt of electronic
34 bids and offers.
35 § 8. Subdivision 1 of section 103 of the general municipal law, as
36 amended by section 2 of chapter 2 of the laws of 2012, is amended to
37 read as follows:
38 1. Except as otherwise expressly provided by an act of the legislature
39 or by a local law adopted prior to September first, nineteen hundred
40 fifty-three, all contracts for public work involving an expenditure of
41 more than thirty-five thousand dollars which are subject to the
42 provisions of article eight of the labor law, and all purchase contracts
43 involving an expenditure of more than twenty thousand dollars, shall be
44 awarded by the appropriate officer, board or agency of a political
45 subdivision or of any district therein including but not limited to a
46 soil conservation district to the lowest responsible bidder furnishing
47 the required security after advertisement for sealed bids in the manner
48 provided by this section, provided, however, that purchase contracts
49 (including contracts for service work, but excluding any purchase
50 contracts necessary for the completion of a public works contract pursu-
51 ant to article eight of the labor law) may be awarded on the basis of
52 best value, as defined in section one hundred sixty-three of the state
53 finance law, to a responsive and responsible bidder or offerer in the
54 manner provided by this section except that in a political subdivision
55 other than a city with a population of one million inhabitants or more
56 or any district, board or agency with jurisdiction exclusively therein
S. 2298 6
1 the use of best value for awarding a purchase contract or purchase
2 contracts must be authorized by local law or, in the case of a district
3 corporation, school district or board of cooperative educational
4 services, by rule, regulation or resolution adopted at a public meeting.
5 Such officer, board, or agency may require responsible bidders and their
6 subcontractors to participate in apprenticeship training programs
7 approved by the department of labor. In determining whether a purchase
8 is an expenditure within the discretionary threshold amounts established
9 by this subdivision, the officer, board or agency of a political subdi-
10 vision or of any district therein shall consider the reasonably expected
11 aggregate amount of all purchases of the same commodities, services or
12 technology to be made within the twelve-month period commencing on the
13 date of purchase. Purchases of commodities, services or technology shall
14 not be artificially divided for the purpose of satisfying the discre-
15 tionary buying thresholds established by this subdivision. A change to
16 or a renewal of a discretionary purchase shall not be permitted if the
17 change or renewal would bring the reasonably expected aggregate amount
18 of all purchases of the same commodities, services or technology from
19 the same provider within the twelve-month period commencing on the date
20 of the first purchase to an amount greater than the discretionary buying
21 threshold amount. In any case where a responsible bidder's or responsi-
22 ble offerer's gross price is reducible by an allowance for the value of
23 used machinery, equipment, apparatus or tools to be traded in by a poli-
24 tical subdivision, the gross price shall be reduced by the amount of
25 such allowance, for the purpose of determining the low bid or best
26 value. In cases where two or more responsible bidders furnishing the
27 required security submit identical bids as to price, such officer, board
28 or agency may award the contract to any of such bidders. Such officer,
29 board or agency may, in [his, her] their or its discretion, reject all
30 bids or offers and readvertise for new bids or offers in the manner
31 provided by this section.
32 § 9. Section 220 of the labor law is amended by adding a new subdivi-
33 sion 11 to read as follows:

9 graph, subdivision, section or part contained in any part thereof
10 directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have
