San Francisco's current procurement system treats large and small contracts equally, leading to inefficiencies that burden administrative staff and hinder small businesses. Rafael Mandelman is legislating changes to streamline this process, inspired by critiques of government bureaucracy. The proposed legislation seeks to simplify access for contracts under $230,000, eliminating unnecessary requirements. Additionally, it aims to remove the Sweatfree Procurement Advisory Group established in 2005. Supervisor Matt Dorsey's support of these measures reflects growing concern for creating a more efficient government structure.
San Francisco's procurement process treats large contracts the same as those worth less than $230,000, creating bureaucratic burdens and hindering small business engagement.
District 6 Supervisor Matt Dorsey described San Francisco’s procurement process as 'everything bagel' policymaking, referencing the heavy regulatory environment criticized in 'Abundance'.
