Emergency Purchase Details 26-482DPH-FINAN-B-50054 Reference

Emergency Category (select the appropriate option from the drop-down menu below):

Immediate expenditure is necessary for repairs to State property to protect against further loss or damage

Reason for selection of this particular vendor:

Federal regulations require the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) to maintain a strategic cache of emergency medical equipment, pharmaceuticals, and supplies to ensure the State’s readiness for public health emergencies. These items must be stored in a facility that meets all applicable local, state, and federal standards, including Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), to ensure their safety, security, and usability in an emergency response.

Agiliti Health, Inc. is selected for this emergency procurement because it is the current provider of warehousing services under Emergency Contract No. 26-482DPH-FINAN-B-48965. Although execution of that agreement has been delayed due to vendor disclosure errors and extended response times from Agiliti’s higher headquarters, the vendor continues to maintain custody of the supplies and equipment and has committed to ongoing compliance with all required standards.

Agiliti’s facility is already housing the materials in question and is uniquely equipped to meet IDPH’s storage requirements, including climate control, security systems, and emergency backup infrastructure. Transitioning to a new vendor at this time would require physically relocating the cache, posing risks to the integrity of the supplies and incurring significant costs and delays, which would compromise the State’s emergency preparedness.

IDPH issued a formal solicitation (IFB 25-482DPH-FINAN-B-47367), which closed on 05/06/2025. However, no bids met the Business Enterprise Program (BEP) goal. As a result, IDPH is preparing to reissue the solicitation under IFB 25-482DPH-FINAN- B-48312.

This short-term emergency procurement is intended to ensure uninterrupted warehousing and logistics services while the new long-term contract is competitively awarded. Agiliti Health, Inc. remains the only vendor currently capable of providing compliant and continuous storage services for these federally funded medical assets.

Description of supplies or services to be provided:

The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) requires continued warehousing and logistics support for its emergency medical equipment and pharmaceutical cache to ensure 24/7 operational readiness in accordance with state and federal public health preparedness standards. This emergency contract will maintain uninterrupted services while the long-term contract is finalized under solicitation 25-482DPH-FINAN-B-48312.

Under this emergency procurement, the selected vendor, Agiliti Health, Inc., will provide:

1. Technical reports for management and operations, plans, analyses, and prototype efforts every month 2.

Reports reflecting identified Deliverables, performance measures, or as requested by the Illinois Department of Public Health.

3.

Reports must be delivered to IDPH no later than the 20th of each month, with information for the preceding month, and must include information on all activities; monthly and cumulative prices; expenditures versus plan (burn rate); and any support or technical issues.

List the actions taken by the agency that constitute its best efforts to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program in this emergency purchase:

In accordance with 30 ILCS 500/20-30(a), the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) made best efforts to identify and include Business Enterprise Program (BEP) certified vendors in this emergency procurement process. A search was conducted using the appropriate NIGP code(s) relevant to medical-grade warehousing and pharmaceutical storage services.

This search resulted in no BEP-certified vendors that could meet the specialized technical, environmental, and regulatory requirements necessary for this emergency warehousing contract. These requirements include 24/7 access, climate-controlled storage, compliance with Current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), SCADA integration, emergency power systems, and security protocols required for federally funded strategic medical stockpiles.

Due to the urgent timeline, the lack of qualified BEP-certified vendors, and the fact that this contract is 100% federally funded (and therefore not subject to BEP goals under the revised solicitation), IDPH proceeded with the only vendor—Agiliti Health, Page 4 of 4State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services Emergency Purchase Statement V.25.2
