§ 52:34A-2 — Findings, declarations relative to use of electronic technology.

2. The Legislature finds and declares that advances in electronic technology offer opportunities to enhance governmental efficiencies. In order to explore these avenues of improved government efficiency, it is in the best interests of the State to require public entities to implement proven electronic technologies for the procurement of public works construction, and to require the promulgation of standards for the use of these technologies that ensure the integrity and procedural protections of sealed public bidding and competitive contracting translated to an electronic environment.
