Emergency Notice Unisys support and maintenance while transitioning to a new system

Illinois awarded an Open Market Emergency Purchases contract to Unisys Corporation (V00014031) on June 18, 2026, for continued system support services. The contract, administered by the Information Technology (INFOTECH557) contracting organization, carries a contract value of $70,000.00 and is scheduled for completion by September 15, 2026. The single line item encompasses emergency support services for Unisys systems during a transition period to a new system implementation, with performance occurring over the three-month contract period.

The contract represents a critical interim support arrangement designed to maintain operational continuity while the State of Illinois transitions from existing Unisys infrastructure to an updated system environment. No specific geographic performance location is designated within the contract documentation. The emergency procurement vehicle selected reflects the time-sensitive nature of the support requirements and the necessity to maintain system functionality throughout the migration period. The contract's relatively modest value and defined completion date indicate a bounded engagement focused on facilitating the system transition rather than an ongoing operational support relationship.
