The business must include the following statement on every invoice submitted to the Commonwealth: "(name of business) is a qualified small business concern as defined in 4 Pa. Code 2.32."
   A business is eligible for payments when the required payment is the latest of:
      The payment date specified in the contract.
      30 days after the later of the receipt of a proper invoice or receipt of goods or services.
      The net payment date stated on the business' invoice.
   A 15-day grace period after the required payment date is provided to the Commonwealth by the Act.

2006-2 Senate Resolution 208 (2006) directs the Legislative Budget and Finance Committee to conduct a study of the cost-effectiveness of consolidating school districts in the Commonwealth. The Committee is seeking a contractor specifically to: (a) determine whether, by consolidating school districts, smaller and more rural districts could save money in regards to purchasing power of supplies and services; (b) analyze whether services could be consolidated, much like many municipal services on other levels, by consolidating school districts; (c) study the effects of consolidation on transportation issues, logistical issues, and other situations that may not be considered on the surface; (d) investigate whether, by pooling state moneys together to provide better services for more rural school districts, the Commonwealth could run a more efficient and ultimately a better system of education for its young people; and (e) evaluate whether, by consolidation of school districts at the county, intermediate unit, or other level, larger school districts could provide more services such as extensive special-needs programs, after-school programs, and other means that poorer districts traditionally cannot provide or afford. Proposals in response to this RFP must arrive at the LB&FC offices by close of business (5:00 p.m.) on or before September 15, 2006. The final report on the project is due June 2007. The RFP contains specific information on required products and project completion dates.
