Code of Federal Regulations Title 23. Highways § 23.636.201 What selection procedures and award criteria may be used?

Current as of January 02, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

You should consider using two-phase selection procedures for all design-build projects. However, if you do not believe two-phase selection procedures are appropriate for your project (based on the criteria in § 636.202), you may use a single phase selection procedure or the modified-design-build contracting method. The following procedures are available:
