About this file

This document is an Emergency Purchase Statement and Extension from the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority. The Tollway issued a 90-day emergency procurement contract with Law Enforcement Systems LLC (LES) in January 2018 to provide out-of-state registration retrieval services, as the awarded vendor RGA Solutions LLC was unable to meet the contract requirements. The Tollway is now requesting a 3-month extension of this emergency contract with LES, from October 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, with an increase of $300,000 to the contract limit. This extension is necessary as the Tollway is re-bidding the replacement contract, with a new RFP published on July 23, 2019 and a bid opening date of August 30, 2019. Without these services, the Tollway would jeopardize $250,000 to $450,000 in revenue per week.

The original emergency contract with LES was for $700,000 and was estimated. The extension request is also estimated at $300,000. The funding source is listed as "Other". This emergency procurement and extension is necessary to ensure continuity of critical state services that affect the collection of substantial state revenues from toll violators until a replacement contract can be awarded through a competitive process.

Describe the scope of the original emergency (supply, service, etc.):

Law Enforcement Systems LLC ("LES") successfully provided out-of-state registration retrieval services for the Tollway via sole source contract through 06/30/2017 (IPB #22037863). The sole source contract was necessary to mitigate risks as the Tollway transitioned to a new back-office system. Since transitioning to the new system, the Tollway pursued a replacement contract via competitive bid which was awarded on 08/21/2017 (IPB #22040567). On 09/05/2017, one of the six bidding vendors filed a protest with the office of the Chief Procurement Officer. During this time, the Tollway processed two small purchase contracts with LES to ensure business continuity. On 12/12/2017, the Chief Procurement Officer issued a letter denying the protest. On 12/20/2017, the Tollway executed a contract with RGA Solutions LLC (“RGA”) to perform services under contract. On 01/10/2018, the Tollway issued a 90-day emergency procurement with LES (IPB#22041782) to ensure services continued until the new contract with RGA was up and running to performance standards.

After working with the awarded vendor for several months, it was determined that they could not provide the services that the IFB and resulting contract required. The Tollway issued this emergency contract in order to prevent a serious disruption in critical State services that affect the collection of substantial State revenues.

Describe the scope of the extension (supply, service, etc.). Show justification for extending the original emergency contract, and explain why the extension need cannot be met through a competitive process:

Law Enforcement Systems LLC (“LES”) uses the license plate information provided by the Tollway to gather registered vehicle owner information from the departments of motor vehicles from United States jurisdictions and Canadian provinces. LES then returns the registered vehicle information (which includes the name and address of the registered owner) thus enabling the Tollway to pursue the violators for toll collection, fees, and fines. Per policy, the Tollway must issue notices within 90 days of the violation or they become ineligible for fines. Without these services in place, the Tollway will jeopardize $250,000 to $450,000 in revenue per week.

The Tollway previously requested a three-month extension to this emergency contract with an increase of $300,000.00 to the contract limit, which expires 06/30/2019. On 03/14/2019, the Illinois Tollway published the new RFP in BidBuy on B-6321, with a bid opening date of 04/25/2019. One offer was received, which was found non-responsive. The RFP was re-published on 7/23/2019, with a bid opening date of 8/30/2019. We request a three-month extension on this emergency contract with a contract limit increase in the amount of $300,000 to allow time to execute a new contract.

Was authorization to proceed verbally given? No Yes NA
