What it does
3. This bill allows a government entity to use an alternative project delivery contract in circumstances that normally require the government entity to use competitive bidding procedures. The bill defines a government entity to include the state board of regents. The bill creates two types of alternative project delivery contracts, each with specified requirements. The first alternative is the construction manager-at-risk contract. If a government entity opts to use a construction manager-at-risk contract, the government entity shall select an engineer or architect to prepare the construction documents for the project.
