Bill of Materials Transparency Act (Proposed)
Proposed Law Mandating Public Disclosure of Project Itemization Prior to Contract Signing.
In many government infrastructure projects, citizens, engineers, and watchdog groups remain unaware of the actual itemized cost breakdown until after a contract is already signed. This lack of early disclosure prevents public scrutiny, invites overpricing, and increases the risk of collusion and corruption. Transparency before contract signing is a safeguard against abuse.
