LBB Reporting Under Senate Bill 1

In accordance with the General Appropriations Act (GAA), TxDOT must report to the Legislative Budget Board (LBB) as follows:
  • Contracts greater than $1 million that are procured using a non-competitive/sole source procurement must be reported within 15 days of award.
  • Contracts greater than $10 million must be reported within 15 days of award.
  • Contracts greater than $1 million that are procured using an emergency process must be reported within five days of award.
  • All other contracts for goods or services valued over $50,000 must be reported within 30 days of execution.
These reporting requirements apply to new contracts, grants, purchase orders, interagency contracts, interlocal contracts, federal contracts, and amendments.
For each contract valued over $10 million, as well as each contract valued over $1 million that is procured using an emergency process issued without competition, TxDOT must include a certification letter signed by the executive director of the agency or a designee.
Additionally, in response to the LBB’s request, TxDOT must review a list of all amendments that increased a contract’s overall value by 10% or more and respond according to the LBB’s instructions.
