Section 6950 Of Chapter 6.6. Alternative Project Delivery Program: Construction Manager/general Contractor Authority From California Public Contract Code >> Division 2. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 6.6.
6950
. The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:
(a) The alternative public works project delivery methods
authorized under this chapter should be evaluated for the purposes of
exploring whether the potential exists for reduced project costs,
expedited project completion, or design features that are not
achievable through the traditional project delivery methods.
(b) The design sequencing and Construction Manager/General
Contractor project delivery methods rely on existing design-bid-build
and design-build procurement methods respectively and have been
successfully used by both public and private sector entities in
California and other states for over a decade on projects that
require a quick startup as they allow construction to begin before
the design plans are complete for the entire project.
(c) Both methods also have the benefit of allowing for earlier
collaboration between the project owner and construction contractor.
(d) This chapter shall not be deemed to provide a preference for
these project delivery methods over other delivery methodologies.
