The State of Illinois awarded an Open Market Sole Source Procurement contract to Apex Fire Sprinkler Company, LLC (Vendor ID: V00021321) on April 13, 2026. The contracting organization is Lincoln Correctional Center, located in Lincoln, Illinois. The contract encompasses a single line item for quarterly sprinkler inspection services covering six fire sprinkler systems in compliance with National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards. The total contract value is $1,448.00, with performance scheduled for completion by July 31, 2026.

The services to be delivered consist of one quarterly inspection cycle of the facility's fire sprinkler infrastructure, with inspections conducted to NFPA 3PS standards. As a sole source procurement, this award was justified based on the specialized nature of the required services or the vendor's unique qualifications to perform fire safety inspections at the correctional facility. The relatively short performance period of approximately 3.5 months suggests this engagement may represent either a single quarterly inspection or the initial phase of ongoing fire safety maintenance compliance obligations.
