About this file

This document is Addendum No. 4 for RFP Contract #22-0042 for Out of State Data Retrieval Services issued by the Illinois Tollway. The addendum responds to vendor questions regarding the current vendor's pricing, the volume of lookups by state and province, and the expectations around a single pricing structure covering registration retrieval and additional skip tracing services. The addendum also provides clarification on the use of NIGP codes for the BEP goal, confirms that a performance bond is not required, and specifies that respondents should provide reference letters and financial statements as part of their proposal. The addendum additionally provides revised pricing lines in BidBuy for skip tracing services and includes WebEx information for the proposal opening meeting.

The revised pricing structure requires bidders to provide separate pricing for 1) registration retrieval, 2) email address retrieval, and 3) address correction/skip tracing services. The addendum provides historical data on the volume of lookup requests and successful responses by state and province, excluding Illinois and Iowa. There is no incumbent vendor information provided, and the funding source is not specified.

Answer No. 6: Address Correction /Skip tracing is a separate service. The Tollway will provide the vendor with name and last known address. The vendor is expected to provide current address, if available. The Tollway will pay for updated address.

Are all bidders required to subcontract with one of those three companies to receive the full points for Category I or can other NIGP codes be used?
