California Law (California AB 2036) now requires municipalities
to provide public works project plans at no cost.

"We were frustrated when we couldn't find a paperless bid solution that met all the new legal requirements, but still allowed us full control and visibility of the bid process. So, we teamed up with Virtual Project Manager (VPM) and CIPLIST.com to create one."
– Nino Abad,
Associate Engineer, City of San Marcos, California

California municipalities are now forced to either release electronic copies and lose control of their projects, or print and "check out" thousands of dollars worth of paper plans. Add in the new obligations to distribute these plans to trade publications and plan rooms, and you've created a virtual nightmare of increased expenses, overworked employees and total loss of control of the bidding process.
