About this file

This is a Change Order Notice Amendment issued by the Illinois Tollway's Chief Procurement Office for General Services regarding contract 19-0097R-A for Tollway Technical Assistance Services. The amendment extends the current contract end date by six months, from October 31, 2026, to April 30, 2027. The current contract term runs from November 1, 2021, through October 31, 2026, with the awarded vendor, Inner City Underwriting, providing technical assistance program services designed to support the development of diverse small business vendors, including disadvantaged, minority, women, and veteran-owned businesses. The Technical Assistance program is integral to the Tollway's broader diversity initiatives, including the Partnering for Growth (P4G) program, providing assessment and guidance to program participants from entry through relationship close-out. The extension will maintain service continuity while a new Request for Proposal for Tollway Technical Assistance Services is being processed and awarded.

Without continuation of the Tollway Technical Assistance Services contract, current program participants would lose critical support in developing skills necessary to compete for Tollway opportunities, directly impacting the Tollway's strategic goals to increase diversity participation in construction and professional services projects. The discontinuation of these services would significantly affect small business development and reduce competition in the construction marketplace, potentially leading to less efficient pricing and reduced vendor diversity. This change order notice, which increases the contract cost or extends the completion time by more than the threshold amounts established in Section 33E-9 of the Criminal Code, will be posted on the Bulletin/BidBuy for 14 days as required by state procurement regulations.

BBREFNO.:
thedetails: The Illinois Tollway is seeking an amendment to its current Tollway Technical Assistance Services contract. The Vendor (Inner City Underwriting) will provide the Technical Assistance program Services which is a crucial part of the Tollway strategy to have a more diverse small business vendor pool including D/M/W and Veteran-owned businesses. Other Tollway programs such as the Partnering for Growth (P4G) program, also rely on the TA program for assessment and guidance, from program entry to relationship close-out. The resulting amendment to the current estimated contract with the awarded Vendor shall extend the end of the contract by 6 months. The current expiration date of 10/31/26 and the new contract end date will be 4/30/2027. The current contract term is 11/1/2021 - 10/31/2026. A new RFP is currently in process for Tollway Technical Assistance Services This extension will continue services without interruption and allow time to award the new RFP.

Without the Tollway Technical Assistance Services contract the Tollway would not be able to procure these services which would impact current program participants’ ability to develop their skills to participate in Tollway opportunities, consequently affecting the Tollway's goals to increase diversity in projects in construction as well as professional services projects. Additionally, developing these small businesses increases competition in the construction marketplace leading to efficient pricing. The discontinuation of these services will severely affect the future of small business participation on Tollway projects.
