At any time, CDB may consider whether action should be taken concerning prequalification.  Actions that may be taken include one or more of the following:

a)         Interim or Emergency Suspension or Modification

CDB may summarily suspend or modify a contractor's prequalification in accordance with Section 16 of the Capital Development Board Act [20 ILCS 3105/16].

b)         Debarment

CDB may debar a contractor to exclude it from bidding for CDB contracts as authorized herein or by statute.  The period of debarment shall be not less than five years and may be permanent when warranted or as authorized by law.

c)         Modification of Ability to Bid

CDB may modify or limit a contractor's prequalification as appropriate, including, but not limited to one or more of the following:

1)         Limiting the dollar amount a contractor may bid for a specified period of time, or until a current contract is substantially or fully complete.

2)         Limiting the number of CDB contracts a contractor may enter into for a specified period of time, or until a current contract is substantially or fully complete.

3)         Limiting the aggregate dollar amount of contracts the contractor may enter into, considering both public and private contracts.

4)         Imposing limits as set forth above pending performance on the contractor's next CDB contract(s), in instances where the contractor has no current CDB contracts.

d)         Conditional Prequalification

CDB may condition prequalification (which may be otherwise limited) on the contractor's successful utilization of a management plan, evaluations, conferences, or other methods designed to achieve satisfactory performance or compliance with contract requirements.

e)         Suspension

CDB may suspend a contract or disqualify a contractor temporarily from contracting with CDB, for a period of time up to five years.  The contractor's failure to timely pursue administrative action as provided by Subpart D of this Part shall constitute consent of the contractor to CDB's action.
