State facilities: alternative project delivery methods.

Existing law establishes procedures governing design-bid-build methods of procurement, but permits the Director of General Services, when authorized by the Legislature, to use the design-build procurement process for state office facilities, other buildings, structures, and related facilities. Existing law further requires the director, prior to contracting for the procurement of state office facilities and other state buildings and structures, to prepare a program setting forth the scope of the project and to establish a competitive prequalification process, as provided.
