Full text of Illinois Illinois Compiled Statutes § 5, with citation guidance and answers to common questions.
§ 5.
Legislative policy. (a) It is the public policy of the State of Illinois to promote the development of infrastructure projects that serve the needs of the public. (b) The design-build project delivery method and Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method and use of Alternative Technical Concepts have the potential to capture private sector innovation and safely deliver infrastructure projects on more predictable schedules and budgets. Earlier completion and lower cost for projects are possible with the ability to shift or share risks with the private sector that are generally retained by the public in the conventional design-bid-build project delivery method. (c) It is the intent of the General Assembly that the Department of Transportation and the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority may evaluate and use Alternative Technical Concepts proposed by bidders and proposers and to use the design-build project delivery method and Construction Manager/General Contractor project delivery method. (d) It is the intent of this Act to use design professionals, construction companies, and workers from this State, reflecting the diversity of the State's businesses and workforce, to the greatest extent possible. (e) Except as otherwise provided in this Act, the powers granted in this Act are in addition to any other powers authorized under applicable law. (Source: P.A. 102-1094, eff. 6-15-22.)
