| Public Act 100-0140 | ||||
| ||||
| ||||
AN ACT concerning State government.
| ||||
Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
| ||||
represented in the General Assembly:
| ||||
Section 5. The Department of Central Management Services | ||||
Law of the
Civil Administrative Code of Illinois is amended by | ||||
adding Section 405-530 as follows: | ||||
(20 ILCS 405/405-530 new) | ||||
Sec. 405-530. Higher education supplier diversity report. | ||||
(a) Every private institution of higher education approved | ||||
by the Illinois Student Assistance Commission for purposes of | ||||
the Monetary Award Program shall submit a 2-page report on its | ||||
voluntary supplier diversity program to the Department. The | ||||
report shall set forth all of the following: | ||||
(1) The name, address, phone number, and e-mail address | ||||
of the point of contact for the supplier diversity program | ||||
(or the institution's procurement program if there is no | ||||
supplier diversity program) for vendors to register with | ||||
the program. | ||||
(2) Local and State certifications the institution | ||||
accepts or recognizes for minority-owned, women-owned, or | ||||
veteran-owned business status. | ||||
(3) On the second page, a narrative explaining the | ||||
results of the report and the tactics to be employed to | ||||
achieve the goals. | ||
(4)
The voluntary goals, if any, for either
fiscal year | ||
or calendar year 2019 in each category for the
entire | ||
budget of the institution (expending both public and
| ||
private moneys, including any fee-supported entities) and
| ||
the commodity codes or a description of particular goods | ||
and services for the area of procurement in which
the | ||
institution expects most of those goals to focus on in
the | ||
next year. However, a private institution of higher | ||
education may report the
information under this | ||
subdivision (3) for fiscal year or
calendar year 2018 | ||
instead. With respect to
private institutions of higher | ||
education,
beginning with the 2020 report, the actual | ||
spending for the
entire budget of the institution | ||
(expending both public and
private moneys, including any | ||
fee-supported entities) for
minority business enterprises, | ||
women's business
enterprises, and veteran-owned | ||
businesses, expressed both
in actual dollars and as a | ||
percentage of the total budget
of the institution. However, | ||
if
a private institution of higher education elects to | ||
report
the information under subdivision (3) of this | ||
subsection
(a) for fiscal year or calendar year 2018 | ||
instead, then the
information under this subdivision (4) | ||
must be reported
beginning with the 2019 report. | ||
Each private institution of higher education is required to | ||
submit a searchable Adobe PDF report to the Department on or | ||
before November 15, 2019 and on or before November 15 every | ||
year thereafter. However, if a private institution of higher | ||
education elects to report the information under subdivision | ||
(3) of this subsection (a) for fiscal year or calendar year | ||
2018 instead, then the institution is required to submit the | ||
report on or before November 15, 2018 and on or before November | ||
15 every year thereafter. | ||
(b) For each report submitted under subsection (a) of this | ||
Section, the Department shall publish the results on its | ||
Internet website for 5 years after submission. The Department | ||
is not responsible for collecting the reports or for the | ||
content of the reports. | ||
(c) The Department shall hold an annual higher education | ||
supplier diversity workshop in February of 2018 and every | ||
February thereafter to discuss the reports with | ||
representatives of the institutions of higher education and | ||
vendors. | ||
(d) The Department shall prepare a one-page template (not | ||
including the narrative section) for the voluntary supplier | ||
diversity reports.
| ||
Section 99. Effective date. This Act takes effect upon | ||
becoming law.
