Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(30 ILCS 537/5) (Section scheduled to be repealed on January 1, 2026)
Sec. 5. Legislative policy. It is the intent of the General Assembly
that
the State construction agency be allowed to use the design-build delivery method
for public
projects if it is shown to be in the State's best interest for that particular
project. It shall be the policy of the State construction agency in the
procurement of
design-build services to publicly announce all requirements for design-build
services and to procure these services on the basis of demonstrated competence
and qualifications and with due regard for the principles of competitive
selection.
The State construction agency shall, prior to issuing requests for proposals,
promulgate
and publish procedures for the solicitation and award of contracts pursuant to
this Act.
The State construction agency shall, for each public project or projects
permitted under
this Act, make a written determination, including a description as to the
particular advantages of the design-build procurement method, that it is in the
best interests of this State to enter into a design-build contract for the
project or projects. In making that determination, the following factors shall
be considered:
(1) The probability that the design-build procurement |
| method will be in the best interests of the State by providing a material savings of time or cost over the design-bid-build or other delivery system.
|
|
(2) The type and size of the project and its
|
| suitability to the design-build procurement method.
|
|
(3) The ability of the State construction agency to
|
| define and provide comprehensive scope and performance criteria for the project.
|
|
No State construction agency may use a design-build procurement method unless the agency determines in writing that the project will comply with the disadvantaged business and equal employment practices of the State as established in the Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and Persons with Disabilities Act and Section 2-105 of the Illinois Human Rights Act.
The State construction agency shall within 15 days after the initial
determination provide an advisory copy to the Procurement Policy Board and
maintain the full record of determination for 5 years.
