  • CONTRACT DOCUMENTS
  • UPSIDE

____________________________________________

CHANGES TO CONTRACT / DOCUMENTS

When construction Work exceeds $250,000 and if the PSC estimated value of Work for any Division of Work (DOW) is less than the Procurement Code Small Purchase Limit, that DOW can now be rolled-up into another DOW.

  • This change is the result of revisions made to the Illinois Procurement Code and Rules.
  • The PSC will perform this activity when generating specifications as approved by the campus Unit Head; language has been added to the PSC agreement.
  • A process document outlining the rational and conditions can be found on the UOCP&RES website within the Policies and Laws section under the Faculty & Staff and Design Professionals tabs.

Reference to the PSC Scope and Fee Policy has been added to the PSC agreement to help identify the administrative requirements of their negotiation fee.

CHANGES TO UPSIDE

The Good Faith Effort (GFE) date calculated for the Pre-Bid Meeting Information templates has been changed from 7 days to 10 days from the bid opening date.
