Ill. Admin. Code tit. 71, § 2000.170 - Bidder Must be Responsible
Contracts are to be made only with responsible Bidders unless no responsible Bidder is available to meet the Agency's needs. If there is doubt about the responsibility of a Bidder as determined by Subpart C of this Part, and if a bond or other security, such as cashiers check, certified check, or withholding a percentage of the total contract amount, would adequately protect the Agency's interests, then that Bidder may be awarded a contract upon receipt of the bond or other security.
