Record Retention and Audit In compliance with the Illinois Procurement Code (30 Ill. Comp. Stat. 500/20-65) and rules promulgated thereunder, every CONTRACT for goods and services shall provide that the contractor shall maintain certain records, books and documents. The DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall maintain in the State of Illinois, for a minimum of five years from the latter of the date of completion of the CONTRACT or the date of final payment under the CONTRACT, adequate books, records, and supporting documents from an accounting system maintained in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles to verify the amounts, recipients, uses and methods of all disbursements of funds passing in conjunction with the CONTRACT. The five year record maintenance period shall be extended for the duration of any audit in progress at the time of that period’s expiration. The DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall at its own expense make such records available in a timely manner for inspection and audit (including copies and extracts of records) as required by the Auditor General and other State Auditors, the Chief Procurement Officer for General Services, the Illinois Department of Transportation, and the TOLLWAY’s Inspector General, Internal Audit or other TOLLWAY agents at all reasonable times and without prior notice. For purposes of this section, “timeliness” will be considered production within the time period specified by the Auditor General and other State Auditors, the Chief Procurement Officer for General Services, the Illinois Department of Transportation and the TOLLWAY’s Inspector General, Internal Audit or other TOLLWAY agents, but no later than thirty days after a request for records being made unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER agrees to cooperate fully with any audit conducted by the Auditor General and other State Auditors, the Chief Procurement Officer for General Services, the Illinois Department of Transportation and the TOLLWAY’s Inspector General, Internal Audit or other TOLLWAY agents, and to provide full access to all relevant materials. The auditors reserve the right to enter the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER’s place of business in order to audit the records. If they are not produced in a timely manner by the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER, then the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall reimburse the TOLLWAY or other State agency for the travel expenses of its auditors in the event that this right is invoked. The obligations of this Section shall be explicitly included in any subcontracts or agreements formed between the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER and any subcontractors or suppliers of goods and services to the extent that those subcontracts or agreements relate to fulfillment of the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER’s obligations to the TOLLWAY. Such subcontractor shall be required to comply with the terms and conditions of this Section and the TOLLWAY shall be entitled to enforce a breach of that contract. Any audit adjustment will be submitted on a final invoice for any underpayment or overpayment to the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER or its subcontractors. The DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall promptly reimburse the TOLLWAY for any overpayment, or the TOLLWAY at its option may deduct any overpayment from any funds due the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER, whether those funds are due under this contract or other contracts to which the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER is a party either directly with the TOLLWAY or as a subcontractor. In the event the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER fails or refuses to reimburse the TOLLWAY for an overpayment, the DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall be responsible for all costs, including attorney fees, incurred by the TOLLWAY to collect such overpayment. Failure to maintain or make available the books, records, and supporting documents required by this Section shall establish a presumption in favor of the TOLLWAY for recovery of any funds paid by the TOLLWAY under the contract for which adequate books, records and supporting documentation are not available to support their purported disbursement. The DESIGN SECTION ENGINEER shall reimburse the TOLLWAY for the total costs of an audit that identifies significant findings that would benefit the TOLLWAY, including but not limited to reasonable attorney’s fees and other expenses. Significant findings for the purposes of this provision shall be identified as an amount in excess of $50,000 in aggregate of the audit report or findings of material performance or compliance deficiencies.
