Sec. 6.
Selection procedure.
On the basis of evaluations,
discussions and presentations, the political subdivision shall, unless it
has a satisfactory relationship for services with one or more firms, select no
less than 3 firms which it determines to be the most qualified to
provide services for the project and rank them in order of qualifications
to provide services regarding the specific project. The political
subdivision shall then contact the firm ranked most preferred and attempt
to negotiate a contract at a fair and reasonable compensation, taking into
account the estimated value, scope, complexity, and professional nature of
the services to be rendered.
If fewer than 3 firms submit letters of interest and the political
subdivision determines that one or both of those firms are so qualified,
the political subdivision may proceed to negotiate a contract pursuant to
this Section and Section 7.
