Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process.
Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as
Public
Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the
Guide.
Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes,
statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect.
If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has
not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already
been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes
made to the current law.
(30 ILCS 575/3.5) (This Section may contain text from a Public Act with a delayed effective date) Sec. 3.5. Uniform standard of contract goals. (a) The Business Enterprise Program may establish uniform standards for calculating contract specific Business Enterprise Program goals for all State contracts and State construction contracts subject to this Act. In establishing those standards, the Business Enterprise Program may consider normal industry practice, the scope of the work to be performed under a contract, the availability of vendors that are able to perform the scope of the work to be performed under a contract, the availability of certified vendors that are able to perform the work to be performed under a contract, and the State's progress to date toward meeting the aspirational goals set forth in this Act. (b) Each State agency that is subject to this Act and each public institution of higher education that is subject to this Act may, in accordance with the provisions of this Act, set goals concerning participation in State contracts, including State construction contracts, to which the State agency or public institution of higher education is party. Goals involving State contracts above the small purchase threshold, as defined in Section 20-20 of the Illinois Procurement Code, may be submitted to the Business Enterprise Program for approval, denial, or modification. (c) As used in this Section, the terms "State contract" and "State construction contract" do not include grants from State agencies to grantees for capital improvements or operational expenses.
