Sec. 3.
For any project for which the director determines the assignment of a contract designer is required:
(1) the director shall recommend at least three (3) who: (A) qualify in the particular classification of work; and(B) are currently in good standing with the certification board; and(2) the commissioner shall select a contract designer for the purpose of negotiating a contract for the proposed design work. The negotiations will be predicated upon a showing that the designer's personnel availability and work in progress will warrant that the work contemplated can be done in a timely manner. The contract designer shall not subcontract any of the contracted design work, considered to be part of the prime contract work, except those functions normally subcontracted in similar circumstances, and the proposed subcontract professionals shall be subject to the same prequalifications as the contract designer and must be approved for the subcontract design work by the director before use. Approval of a contract design firm shall only be considered where a sufficient number of the personnel of the firm shall have valid professional qualification and requisites to ensure intimate, competent control over all facets of the design work under consideration as evidenced by professional registration.Indiana Department of Administration; Public Works Division Sec C,3; filed Feb 29, 1972, 4:10 p.m.: Rules and Regs. 1973, p.3; filed Feb 3, 1982, 1:05 p.m.: 5 IR 510; readopted filed Nov 20, 2001, 9:30 a.m.: 25 IR 1265; filed Nov 14, 2007, 11:10 a.m.: 20071212-IR-025060515FRA; readopted filed Oct 18, 2013, 1:38 p.m.: 20131113-IR-025130403RFAReadopted filed 11/4/2019, 3:40 p.m.: 20191204-IR-025190494RFAReadopted filed 10/25/2024, 12:07 p.m.: 20241120-IR-025240218RFA
