AI Summary

Based on the limited XML provided and the government summary, I'll draft a summary: This bill amends the Illinois Procurement Code to expand the procurement options for public higher education institutions by allowing them to use job order contracting (JOC) through competitive sealed bidding for construction contracts. Job order contracting is a procurement method that enables efficient, expedited contracting for multiple smaller construction projects by using pre-established unit prices and a competitive bidding process. By providing public colleges and universities with this procurement approach, the bill aims to potentially streamline construction project acquisition, potentially reducing administrative overhead and allowing for more flexible and responsive contract management.
