SDCL § 5-18B-33: Proposals to be sealed--Contents.

Any proposal shall be sealed and may not be opened until expiration of the time established for making proposals as set forth in the design-build request for proposals. To the extent required by the request for proposals, any proposal shall identify each person to whom the design-builder proposes to sublet obligations under the design-build contract. At a minimum, any proposal shall identify each person to whom the design-builder proposes to sublet any design obligations or general construction obligations. Any person so identified may not be replaced without the approval of the purchasing agency. Any proposal shall establish a cost of the design-build contract that may not be exceeded if the proposal is accepted without change. The maximum cost in the proposal may be converted to fixed prices by negotiated agreement between the purchasing agency and the selected design-builder.
