. (a) The local agency, in each design-build request for
proposals, may identify specific types of subcontractors that must be
included in the design-build entity statement of qualifications and
proposal. All construction subcontractors that are identified in the

(b) Following award of the design-build contract, the design-build
entity shall proceed as follows in awarding construction
subcontracts with a value exceeding one-half of 1 percent of the
contract price allocable to construction work:
(1) Provide public notice of availability of work to be
subcontracted in accordance with the publication requirements
applicable to the competitive bidding process of the local agency,
including a fixed date and time on which qualifications statements,
bids, or proposals will be due.
(2) Establish reasonable qualification criteria and standards.
(3) Award the subcontract either on a best value basis or to the
lowest responsible bidder. The process may include prequalification
or short-listing. The foregoing process does not apply to
construction subcontractors listed in the original proposal.
Subcontractors awarded construction subcontracts under this
subdivision shall be afforded all the protections of Chapter 4
(commencing with Section 4100) of Part 1.
