subcontracts to perform some or all of the work with subcontractors, including, but not exclusively with, those identified in the

list. In submitting its list, the design-builder may, but is not required to, include one or more unlicensed subcontractors the

design builder proposes to use. If this project team selection option is used, the design-builder may, at its election and with or

without the use of negotiated subcontracts, accept bids for the selection of one or more of its first-tier subcontractors.
