The comptroller shall prepare a consolidated report based on a compilation and analysis of the reports submitted by each state agency and other information available to the comptroller. These reports of HUB purchasing and contracts shall form a record of each state agency's purchases in which the state agency selected the contractor. If the contractor was selected by the comptroller as part of its state term contract program, the purchase will be reflected on the comptroller's report of its own purchases. The comptroller report will contain the following information:(1) the total dollar amount of payments made by each state agency;(2) the total number of HUBs paid by each state agency;(3) the total number of contracts awarded to HUBs by each state agency;(4) the number of responses received from HUBs by each state agency; and(5) the graduation rate of HUBs as defined in § 20.294 of this title (relating to Graduation Procedures).(f) Report to legislature.

State agencies shall report as HUB expenditures the total payments made directly to certified prime and subcontractor HUBs under the Vendor Identification Number in the comptroller's HUB directory as follows: (1) A state agency shall report as HUB expenditures payments made to prime and subcontractor HUBs who were certified for at least one day during the reporting period.(2) When the prime contractor is a HUB, it must perform at least 25% of the total value of the contract with its own or leased employees, as defined by the Internal Revenue Service, in order for the state agency to report all payments to the prime contractor for the contract as HUB expenditures. If a HUB prime contractor performs less than 25% of the total value of contract with its employees or leased employees, the state agency shall only report as HUB expenditures the value of the contract that was actually performed by the contractor and its HUB subcontractors.34 Tex.
