Except as provided in subsection (a-5), the specifications may be so drawn as to permit separate and independent bidding upon each of the 5 subdivisions of work. All contracts awarded for any part thereof may award the 5 subdivisions of work separately to responsible and reliable persons, firms, or corporations engaged in these classes of work. The contracts, at the discretion of the construction agency, may be assigned to the successful bidder on the general contract work or to the successful bidder on the subdivision of work designated by the construction agency before the bidding as the prime subdivision of work, provided that all payments will be made directly to the contractors for the 5 subdivisions of work upon compliance with the conditions of the contract.
For single prime projects: (i) the bid of the successful low bidder shall identify the name of the subcontractor, if any, and the bid proposal costs for each of the 5 subdivisions of work set forth in this Section; (ii) the contract entered into with the successful bidder shall provide that no identified subcontractor may be terminated without the written consent of the Capital Development Board; (iii) the contract shall comply with the disadvantaged business practices of the Business Enterprise for Minorities, Women, and Persons with Disabilities Act and the equal employment practices of § 2-105 of the Illinois Human Rights Act; and (iv) the Capital Development Board shall submit an annual report to the General Assembly and Governor on the bidding, award, and performance of all single prime projects.
Until December 31, 2023, for building construction projects with a total construction cost valued at $5,000,000 or less, the Capital Development Board shall not use the single prime procurement delivery method for more than 50% of the total number of projects bid for each fiscal year. Until December 31, 2023, any project with a total construction cost valued greater than $5,000,000 may be bid using single prime at the discretion of the Executive Director of the Capital Development Board.
For contracts entered into on or after January 1, 2024, the Capital Development Board shall determine whether the single prime procurement delivery method is to be pursued. Before electing to use single prime on a project, the Capital Development Board must make a written determination that must include a description as to the particular advantages of the single prime procurement method for that project and an evaluation of the items in paragraphs (1) through (4). The chief procurement officer must review the Capital Development Board’s determination and consider the adequacy of information in paragraphs (1) through (4) to determine whether the Capital Development Board may proceed with single prime. Approval by the chief procurement officer shall not be unreasonably withheld. The following factors must be considered by the chief procurement officer in any determination:

|
(2) The likelihood that single prime will be in the
|
best interest of the State by providing a material savings of time or cost over the multiple prime delivery system. The best interest of the State justification must show the specific benefits of using the single prime method, including documentation of the estimates or scheduling impacts of any of the following: project complexity and trade coordination required, length of project, availability of skilled workforce, geographic area, project timelines, project budget, ability to secure minority, women, persons with disabilities and veteran participation, or other information.

suitability to the single prime procurement method.

Within 15 days of receiving approval from the chief procurement officer, the Capital Development Board shall provide an advisory copy of the written determination to the Procurement Policy Board and the Commission on Equity and Inclusion. The Capital Development Board must maintain the full record of determination for 5 years.
