Agiliti Health Inc. is uniquely qualified to provide these services on an emergency basis due to its existing operational knowledge, established maintenance records, and ongoing support of the State ventilator inventory. The vendor has continuously maintained these ventilators since 2023 and currently maintains the service history, inspection documentation, and operational readiness records for the equipment.

Transitioning to a new vendor during this emergency period would require reinspection, recertification, transfer of maintenance records, and onboarding activities that would delay readiness of critical emergency response equipment. Such delays could negatively impact statewide emergency preparedness and continuity of operations.

This emergency procurement is limited to the period necessary to maintain continuity of critical services while the Illinois Department of Public Health completes the competitive procurement process for a long term agreement. An Invitation for Bid to replace these services is currently scheduled to open bids on May 13, 2026.

ExplanationSuppliesServices: This emergency procurement provides for continued preventive maintenance, inspection, testing, repair, recertification, calibration, battery replacement, storage, transportation coordination, and documentation services for State owned ventilator units in accordance with manufacturer specifications.

Services include maintenance and support for VOCSN and Trilogy ventilator systems, coordination of replacement parts, software updates, logistical support, storage management, and activities necessary to maintain ventilators in a patient ready condition for emergency deployment and response activities.

Ventilators shall be maintained and returned to operational readiness to support statewide public health emergency response operations and Strategic National Stockpile readiness requirements while the Department completes the competitive procurement process for a replacement contract.

TextField1: In compliance with 30 ILCS 500/20-30(a), the Illinois Department of Public Health conducted a Business Enterprise Program vendor search using applicable NIGP commodity codes related to medical equipment maintenance and repair services to identify potential BEP certified vendors capable of performing the required services.

Due to the specialized nature of ventilator maintenance, repair, recertification, calibration, and emergency readiness requirements, qualified vendors are extremely limited. The Department determined that continuation with the incumbent vendor was necessary to maintain uninterrupted operational readiness of the State ventilator cache during this emergency period.

The Department will continue to seek competition through the ongoing Invitation for Bid process for a long term replacement contract currently scheduled to open bids on May 13, 2026.
