About this file

This document is an Emergency Purchase Statement issued by the Illinois Office of Communication and Information (IOCI), a division of the Central Management Services (CMS) agency of the State of Illinois. IOCI is seeking to procure the replacement of a satellite broadcasting system, including a 5.0-meter KU band uplink antenna with motorized controls, a new antenna control unit, low noise block downconverters, a dish deicing system, and all associated equipment and installation services. This emergency procurement is necessary due to the failure of the existing 30-year-old satellite controller and damage to the satellite dish from a lightning strike, which has rendered the current system inoperable. The expected start date is November 16, 2022, and the estimated end date is February 14, 2023, with an estimated total expenditure of $144,766.

The vendor selected for this emergency procurement is Communications & Power Industries LLC Satcom & Antenna Technologies Division, based on their prior experience with the existing system and their ability to provide a quote and meet the State's needs in a timely manner. No opportunities for participation by Business Enterprise Program (BEP) certified vendors were identified, as there are no BEP vendors registered under the relevant NIGP codes. Funding for this procurement will be provided through State appropriated funds.

ExplanationForSelectingVendor: he Illinois Office of Communication and Information (IOCI) is statutorily mandated by 20 ILCS 405/405-270 to provide for and coordinate broadcast communications services for State agencies and, when requested and when in the best interests of the State, for units of federal or local governments and public and not-for-profit institutions of primary, secondary, and higher education.

IOCI originally sought to procure the services of a vendor to replace the satellite controller which instructs the satellite antenna motor to move the dish that is located on the roof of the 120 W. Jefferson St., Springfield, IL 62702. The current controller is 30 years old and had stopped working, although the dish was still able to send and receive transmissions. IOCI and CMS Bureau of Strategic Sourcing (BOSS) attempted to procure the controller equipment via multiple requests for quotes (small purchases) with no success. On or about September 22, 2021, the dish was struck by lightning and is now unable to receive on the horizontal downlink. Because it is not possible to move the dish, it is now not possible to receive any signals.

In order to meet statutory requirements, it has been determined that replacement of the entire system is in the best interest of the State. Based on the lack of success in replacing the satellite controller, IOCI contacted the vendor who installed the current satellite transmission equipment in the early 1990s to request a quote. The vendor was able to access their records and has a good understanding of the location of the equipment and what is needed to meet the State's needs and the vendor was willing to provide a quote for the new equipment.

The BEP goals calculated at 0% as there are no BEP vendors certified under NIGP Codes:

726-54 Ground Stations, Satellite: Transmit/Receive and Receive Only (Including Antennas) 840-20 Broadcast Equipment, Television 840-45 Satellite Receiver Dish (Video)

Due to the recently recognized requirement of a crane being needed to remove the original satellite as well as installing the new satellite once the construction has been completed and the previous Emergency contract extension was not executed, we are doing a new Emergency which includes the estimated cost of the crane. It is estimated as we are unsure how many days it will actually be needed. The cost of the satellite itself will be paid under the old Emergency P-41130 and cost of the removal, installation and crane will be covered under this new Emergency.
