John Deere Transport Lock Knob

The State of Illinois Department of Corrections, through Sheridan Correctional Center, awarded a small purchase contract to SAIFY TRADERS LLC for the procurement of John Deere TCU28829 Transport Lock Knobs. The contract was executed on October 13, 2026, with a contract value of $48 and a performance period extending through June 30, 2027. The prime contractor is responsible for delivery of three units to Sheridan Correctional Center's warehouse receiving dock within 30 days of purchase execution, with all transportation and handling costs included in the unit price on a Free on Board destination basis.

However, documentation discrepancies exist within this award record. The executed Basic Ordering Agreement attached to the award references Smart Innovations LLC as the contracting vendor rather than SAIFY TRADERS LLC, identifies a significantly higher contract value of $231.78 for the same John Deere components, and reflects a unit price of $77.26 per knob. These material variances between the contract header information and the supporting government file warrant clarification regarding the actual prime contractor identity and final contract amount.
