| | HB2614 Enrolled | | LRB098 08020 HLH 38111 b |
|
| 1 | | AN ACT concerning finance.
| 2 | | Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| 3 | | represented in the General Assembly:
| 4 | | Section 5. The Illinois Procurement Code is amended by | 5 | | changing Section 30-30 as follows:
| 6 | | (30 ILCS 500/30-30)
| 7 | | Sec. 30-30. Contracts in excess of $250,000. For
building | 8 | | construction contracts in excess of
$250,000, separate | 9 | | specifications shall be prepared for all
equipment, labor, and | 10 | | materials in
connection with the following 5 subdivisions of | 11 | | the work to be
performed:
| 12 | | (1) plumbing;
| 13 | | (2) heating, piping, refrigeration, and automatic
| 14 | | temperature control systems,
including the testing and | 15 | | balancing of those systems;
| 16 | | (3) ventilating and distribution systems for
| 17 | | conditioned air, including the testing
and balancing of | 18 | | those systems;
| 19 | | (4) electric wiring; and
| 20 | | (5) general contract work.
| 21 | | The specifications must be so drawn as to permit separate | 22 | | and
independent bidding upon
each of the 5 subdivisions of | 23 | | work. All contracts awarded
for any part thereof shall
award |
| | | HB2614 Enrolled | - 2 - | LRB098 08020 HLH 38111 b |
|
| 1 | | the 5 subdivisions of work separately to responsible and
| 2 | | reliable persons, firms, or
corporations engaged in these | 3 | | classes of work. The contracts, at
the discretion of the
| 4 | | construction agency, may be assigned to the successful bidder | 5 | | on
the general contract work or
to the successful bidder on the | 6 | | subdivision of work designated by
the construction agency | 7 | | before
the bidding as the prime subdivision of work, provided | 8 | | that all
payments will be made directly
to the contractors for | 9 | | the 5 subdivisions of work upon compliance
with the conditions | 10 | | of the
contract. A contract may be let for one or more | 11 | | buildings in any
project to the same contractor.
The | 12 | | specifications shall require, however, that unless the
| 13 | | buildings are identical, a separate price
shall be submitted | 14 | | for each building. The contract may be awarded
to the lowest | 15 | | responsible
bidder for each or all of the buildings included in | 16 | | the
specifications.
| 17 | | Until a date 4 years after July 1, 2011, the requirements | 18 | | of this Section do not apply to a construction project for | 19 | | which the Capital Development Board is the construction agency | 20 | | if: (i) the project budget is at least $15,000,000; (ii) the | 21 | | Capital Development Board has submitted to the Procurement | 22 | | Policy Board a written request for a public hearing on waiver | 23 | | of the application of the requirements of this Section to that | 24 | | project, including its reasons for seeking the waiver and why | 25 | | the waiver is in the best interest of the State; (iii) the | 26 | | Capital Development Board has posted notice of the waiver |

| 1 | | hearing on its procurement web page and on the online | 2 | | Procurement Bulletin at least 15 working days before the | 3 | | hearing;
(iv) the Procurement Policy Board, after conducting | 4 | | the public hearing on the waiver request, reviews and approves | 5 | | the request in writing before the award of the contract; (v) | 6 | | the successful low bidder has prequalified with the Capital | 7 | | Development Board; (vi) the bid of the successful low bidder | 8 | | identifies the name of the subcontractor, if any, and the bid | 9 | | proposal costs for each of the 5 subdivisions of work set forth | 10 | | in this Section; and (vii) the contract entered into with the | 11 | | successful bidder provides that no identified subcontractor | 12 | | may be terminated without the written consent of the Capital | 13 | | Development Board.
With respect to any construction project | 14 | | described in this paragraph, the Capital Development Board | 15 | | shall: (i) provide to the Auditor General an affidavit that the | 16 | | waiver of the application of the requirements of this Section | 17 | | is in the best interest of the State; (ii) specify in writing | 18 | | as a public record that the project shall comply with the | 19 | | disadvantaged business practices of the Business Enterprise | 20 | | for Minorities, Females, and Persons with Disabilities Act and | 21 | | the equal employment practices of Section 2-105 of the Illinois | 22 | | Human Rights Act; and (iii) report annually to the Governor and | 23 | | the General Assembly on the bidding, award, and performance. On | 24 | | and after January 1, 2009 (the effective date of Public Act | 25 | | 95-758), the Capital Development Board may award in each year | 26 | | contracts with an aggregate total value of no more than |
