1-Objection template.docx

This is an objection form template provided by the City Colleges of Chicago, specifically the Business and Procurement Services department at Dawson Technical Institute located in Chicago, Illinois. The template is designed for companies to formally object to sole source procurement announcements issued by the institution. The form allows objecting parties to challenge proposed sole source awards and assert their capability to provide equivalent services at a price equal to or below the quoted price.

The objection form requires companies to complete standard information fields including company name, contact person name, phone number, and email address, along with the specific sole source number, proposed awardee name, and release date being challenged. Objectors must indicate their belief that they can provide the same services for a competitive price and request a formal hearing to discuss their objection. The form is submitted to the Business and Procurement Services office at the address and contact information provided, enabling companies to formally challenge sole source determinations before contract awards are finalized.
