§ 636.107   Does the definition of a qualified project limit the use of design-build contracting?

(a) No, the use of the term “qualified project” does not limit the use of design-build contracting. It merely determines the FHWA's procedures for approval. The FHWA Division Administrator may approve the design-build method for “qualified projects” which meet the requirements of this part.

(b) The FHWA Division Administrator may also approve other design-build projects (which do not meet the “qualified projects” definition) by using Special Experimental Projects No. 14 (SEP–14), “Innovative Contracting Practices,”1 provided the project meets the requirements of this part. Projects which do not meet the requirements of this part (either “qualified or non-qualified” projects) must be submitted to the FHWA Headquarters for concept approval.

1 Information concerning Special Experimental Project No. 14 (SEP–14), “Innovative Contracting Practices,” is available on FHWA's home page: http://www.fhwa.dot.gov. Additional information may be obtained from the FHWA Division Administrator in each State.
