About this file

This is a Sole Source Memorandum from the State of Illinois regarding a notice of intent to award a contract as a sole source to Clear Labs for service coverage and reagent supply. The contract covers service maintenance for two Clear Dx System LR-SR instruments along with Clear Dx System reagents and consumables. The memorandum establishes a public comment period, with written comments or requests for a public hearing required by Friday, September 4, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. to prevent cancellation of the hearing. The procurement is being conducted as a sole source award, indicating that Clear Labs has been identified as the only qualified source capable of providing the specified instruments, service coverage, and reagent products.

The memorandum justifies the sole source award determination for Clear Labs' PM reagents and related products under the contract identification number SS 78500001P. As a sole source procurement, this contract bypasses the competitive bidding process based on the unique qualifications and compatibility of Clear Labs' products with the state's existing Clear Dx System infrastructure. The contract is intended to ensure continued operational support and supply of critical reagents necessary for the ongoing function of the specified diagnostic instruments.
