| (a) Amount of preference. When a contract is to be awarded

| 10 |
| allowed a preference as against
a non-resident bidder from any
|
| 11 |

|
| 12 |
| state. The preference shall be equal
to the preference given or |
| 13 |
| required by the state of the
non-resident bidder. Further, if |
| 14 |
| only non-resident bidders are
bidding, the purchasing agency is |
| 15 |
| within its right to specify that
Illinois
labor and |
| 16 |
| manufacturing locations be used as a part of the
manufacturing |
| 17 |
| process, if applicable.
This specification may be negotiated as |
| 18 |
| part of the solicitation
process.

| (b) Residency. A resident bidder is a person authorized to
|
| 20 |
| transact business in this State
and having a bona fide |
| 21 |
| establishment for transacting business
within this State where |

| 23 |
| for a
public contract is first advertised
or announced. A |
| 24 |
| resident bidder includes a foreign corporation
duly authorized |
