Summary

Construction Industry Payment Protection Act of 1999 - Amends the Office of Federal Procurement Policy Act to include among the functions of the Administrator for Federal Procurement Policy the establishment of Government-wide policies assuring the timely payment of contractors, subcontractors, sureties, and suppliers. Amends the Miller Act to: (1) require the amount of a payment bond to be equal to the total amount payable by the terms of the contract unless the contracting officer determines that such amount is impractical, in which case such officer shall set a different amount that cannot be less than the amount of the performance bond; (2) permit notice of an action on a payment bond by a subcontractor to be served by any means which provides written, third-party verification of delivery; (3) provide that any waiver of the right to sue on a required payment bond shall be void unless it is in writing, signed, and executed after covered labor or material has been furnished.
