1    AN ACT concerning regulation.
 
2    Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3represented in the General Assembly:
 
4    Section 3. The Energy Efficient Building Act is amended by
5changing Section 55 as follows:
 
6    (20 ILCS 3125/55)
7    Sec. 55. Illinois Stretch Energy Code.
8    (a) The Board, in consultation with the Agency Department,
9shall create and adopt the Illinois Stretch Energy Code, to
10allow municipalities and projects authorized or funded by the
11Board to achieve more energy efficiency in buildings than the
12Illinois Energy Conservation Code through a consistent pathway
13across the State. The Illinois Stretch Energy Code shall be
14available for adoption by any municipality and shall set
15minimum energy efficiency requirements, taking the place of
16the Illinois Energy Conservation Code within any municipality
17that adopts the Illinois Stretch Energy Code.
18    (b) The Illinois Stretch Energy Code shall have separate
19components for commercial and residential buildings, which may
20be adopted by the municipality jointly or separately.
21    (c) The Illinois Stretch Energy Code shall apply to all
22projects to which an energy conservation code is applicable
23that are authorized or funded in any part by the Board after

8of the Public Utilities Act, municipalities may adopt the
9Illinois Stretch Energy Code and may use utility programs to
10support compliance with the Illinois Stretch Energy Code. The
11amount of savings from such utility efforts that may be
12counted toward achievement of their annual savings goals shall
13be based on reasonable estimates of the increase in savings
14resulting from the utility efforts, relative to reasonable
15approximations of what would have occurred absent the utility
16involvement.

3    Sec. 2.5. Legislative policy; conditions for use of
4design-build. It is the intent of the General Assembly that a
5commission be allowed to use the design-build delivery method
6for public projects if it is shown to be in the commission's
7best interest for that particular project.
8    It shall be the policy of the commission in the
9procurement of design-build services to publicly announce all

11services on the basis of demonstrated competence and
12qualifications and with due regard for the principles of
13competitive selection.
14    The commission shall, prior to issuing requests for
15proposals, promulgate and publish procedures for the
16solicitation and award of contracts pursuant to this Act.
17    The commission shall, for each public project or projects
18permitted under this Act, make a written determination,
19including a description as to the particular advantages of the
20design-build procurement method, that it is in the best
21interests of the commission to enter into a design-build
22contract for the project or projects.
23    In making that determination, the following factors shall
24be considered:
25        (1) The probability that the design-build procurement
26    method will be in the best interests of the commission by

3        (2) The type and size of the project and its
4    suitability to the design-build procurement method.
5        (3) The ability of the design-build entity to define
6    and provide comprehensive scope and performance criteria
7    for the project.
8    The commission shall require the design-build entity to
9comply with the utilization goals established by the corporate
10authorities of the commission for minority and women business
11enterprises and to comply with Section 2-105 of the Illinois
12Human Rights Act.
13    This Section is repealed on July 1, 2025 June 1, 2023;
14provided that any design-build contracts entered into before
15such date or any procurement of a project under this Act
16commenced before such date, and the contracts resulting from
17those procurements, shall remain effective.

17    (a) The Commission must use a two-phase procedure for the
18selection of the successful design-build entity. Phase I of
19the procedure will evaluate and shortlist the design-build
20entities based on qualifications, and Phase II will evaluate
21the technical and cost proposals.
22    (b) The Commission shall include in the request for
23proposal the evaluating factors to be used in Phase I. These

1Each request for proposal shall establish the relative
2importance assigned to each evaluation factor and subfactor,
3including any weighting of criteria to be employed by the
4Commission. The Commission must maintain a record of the
5evaluation scoring to be disclosed in event of a protest
6regarding the solicitation.
7    The Commission shall include the following criteria in
8every Phase I evaluation of design-build entities: (1)
9experience of personnel; (2) successful experience with

14project and qualifications of the entity's consultants; and
15(8) ability or past performance in meeting or exhausting good
16faith efforts to meet the utilization goals for minority and
17women business enterprises established by the corporate
18authorities of the Commission and in complying with Section
192-105 of the Illinois Human Rights Act. The Commission may
20include any additional relevant criteria in Phase I that it
21deems necessary for a proper qualification review.
22    The Commission may not consider any design-build entity
23for evaluation or award if the entity has any pecuniary
24interest in the project or has other relationships or
25circumstances, including but not limited to, long-term
26leasehold, mutual performance, or development contracts with

1the Commission, that may give the design-build entity a
2financial or tangible advantage over other design-build
3entities in the preparation, evaluation, or performance of the
4design-build contract or that create the appearance of
5impropriety. No design-build proposal shall be considered that
6does not include an entity's plan to comply with the
7requirements established in the minority and women business
8enterprises and economically disadvantaged firms established
9by the corporate authorities of the Commission and with
10Section 2-105 of the Illinois Human Rights Act.
11    Upon completion of the qualifications evaluation, the
12Commission shall create a shortlist of the most highly

23considering the scope and detail requested by the Commission.
24    (c) The Commission shall include in the request for
25proposal the evaluating factors to be used in the technical
26and cost submission components of Phase II. Each request for

2submission components of Phase II, the relative importance
3assigned to each evaluation factor and subfactor, including
4any weighting of criteria to be employed by the Commission.
5The Commission must maintain a record of the evaluation
6scoring to be disclosed in event of a protest regarding the
7solicitation.

19every Phase II cost evaluation: the guaranteed maximum project
20cost and the time of completion. The Commission may include
21any additional relevant technical evaluation factors it deems
22necessary for proper selection. The guaranteed maximum project
23cost criteria weighing factor shall not exceed 30%.
24    The Commission shall directly employ or retain a licensed
25design professional to evaluate the technical and cost
26submissions to determine if the technical submissions are in
