  The general assembly hereby finds and declares that:   It is the policy of the state of Colorado to encourage public contracting procedures that encourage competition, openness, and impartiality to the maximum extent possible.    Competition exists not only in the costs of goods and services, but also in the technical competence of the providers and suppliers in their ability to make timely completion and delivery and in the quality and performance of their products and services.    Timely and effective completion of public projects may be achieved through a variety of methods when procuring goods and services for public projects.    In enacting this article, the general assembly intends to establish for any agency of state government an optional alternative public project delivery method.
