About this file
This addendum document provides clarifications and modifications to IFB Contract 24-0074R for Mechanical Street Sweepers issued by the Illinois Tollway. The solicitation is a rebid, with the previous bid 25-0074 having been cancelled in November 2025. The electronic bid opening is scheduled for the date and time published in BidBuy, with participants able to join via Microsoft Teams using the provided meeting details. All questions pertaining to the solicitation must be submitted by email to the Information Contact no later than 2:30 PM on June 23, 2026. Offerors are responsible for monitoring BidBuy for all procurement information, solicitation revisions, and email notifications regarding amendments.
The addendum addresses six vendor inquiries regarding registration and compliance requirements, clarifying that offerors with bids or contracts totaling over $50,000 must be registered with the Illinois State Board of Elections prior to submission, must register with the Illinois Secretary of State prior to contract execution unless exempt, and must obtain an IDHR number if the firm has 15 or more employees. A significant clarification addresses the sweeper specification, confirming that the equipment must feature an engine-driven hydraulic pump system whereby the hydraulic pump is driven by an engine rather than a Power Take Off (PTO) system; the truck chassis may be powered by either a single engine or dual engine configuration. Bidders experiencing technical difficulties accessing documents in BidBuy may contact the BidBuy Help Desk via email or phone during business hours Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 4:30 PM Central Time.

ADDENDUM # 1 Contract 24-0074R / Mechanical Street Sweepers 2
I L L I N O I S T O L L W A Y 2700 Ogden Avenue │Downers Grove, IL 60515 │ Phone: 630.241.6800 │TTY: 630.241.6988 www.illinoistollway.com
6. Question: This bid specification appears to call for a single engine street sweeper.
Bid # 25-0074 that was due in November 2025 was cancelled. We were under the impression that the bid was cancelled because the Tollway intended to specify a dual engine machine in lieu of single engine. The spec included with this re-bid # 25- 0074R is again written to allow for a single engine configuration. Please advise if the Tollway intends to purchase single or two engine street sweepers.
Answer: The sweeper specification calls for an engine driven hydraulic pump system. The truck chassis can be driven by an additional engine or a single engine as long as the hydraulic pump system is driven by an engine not a Power Take Off
(PTO).
