About this file
This Emergency Purchase Statement is issued by the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services in conjunction with the Department of Innovation and Technology's Telecommunications Division for an emergency telecommunications services contract with AT&T Enterprises LLC. The procurement addresses critical state network connectivity services required to prevent serious disruption to essential state services affecting health, safety, and state operations. The contract encompasses a wide range of telecommunications services including transport services, private fiber, internet egress, DDoS protection, local voice, long distance, and conferencing services. The expected contract term runs from December 12, 2025 through March 11, 2026, with an estimated expenditure of $30,000,000. This emergency purchase was declared necessary due to significant delays in processing a new Request for Proposal (RFP) and Invitation for Bids (IFB) to replace an expiring contract that provides approximately 70% of the state network connectivity vital to daily operations for hundreds of state agencies and schools.
The estimated cost of $30,000,000 will be funded through state appropriated funds. AT&T Enterprises LLC, located at 208 South Akard Room 2240.02 in Dallas, Texas 75202, was selected as the sole vendor based on their established infrastructure serving the state and other agencies, their current provision of these services at a reduced cost, and their unique capability to provide this comprehensive array of services statewide without significant downtime. An existing emergency contract expires on December 11, 2025, necessitating the continuation of services through this emergency purchase. The procurement includes a Business Enterprise Program goal of 5% for subcontracting to minorities, women, and persons with disabilities, limited to 10% of applicable services due to the nature of connectivity services that cannot be subcontracted. This contract will serve as a Joint Purchase Master Contract available for use by all state agencies, governmental entities, and qualified not-for-profit organizations.

| ExplanationForSelectingVendor: AT&T has developed a significant infrastructure of services provided to the state and other agencies. The Department currently has these services with AT&T at a reduced cost. At this time, AT&T is the only known vendor that can provide this wide array of services statewide without significant down time. Due to significant delays and issues processing a new RFP and IFV to replace the expiring contract, the Department is forced to declare an emergency to ensure uninterrupted services continue for thousands of state employees, offices, and schools around the state. This contract provides roughly 70% of the state network connectivity and is vital to daily operations for hundreds of agencies and schools. The Department currently is working on RFP and an IFB to replace these services after the last RFP failed due to industry wide modernization efforts and a pivot away from the legacy technology a portion of the State has in place. We will not have a contract in place in time, nor is there sufficient time for any potential transition to a new provider. This emergency will be a Joint Purchase Master Contract (JPMC) available for use by all state agencies, other governmental entities, and qualified not-for-profits. |
| ExplanationSuppliesServices: The Department requires services which fulfill the State’s private telecommunications network, voice and data services required to perform our critical mission. The scope of services covered is wide-ranging services (including but not limited to Transport services, Private Fiber, Internet Egress, DDOS, Local Voice, Long Distance, Conferencing and Other Services) which will enable governmental units and qualified not-for-profit agencies to purchase telecommunications services as to be specified in the resulting contract. This contract will not include Plain Old Telephone Service (POTS). |
| TextField1: This emergency contract with AT&T contains a goal that only applies to 10% of the applicable services. Of this 10% there is a 5% goal that requires subcontracting out to businesses owned and controlled by minorities, women, and persons with disabilities. The scope of this goal was reduced due to the fact that the majority of the services on this contract are for connectivity which can not be subcontracted out. |
While the case may be different for other permitted users establishing their own contracts for services with this vendor, the State does not anticipate that there will be any significant construction projects done as part of this emergency, since the state intends to primarily use this contract to allow for the uninterrupted usage of already-established circuits.
| CheckBoxYes: 1 |
| CheckBoxNo: 0 |
| ExplanationDoesNotMeetNeed: There is a current emergency for these services that expires on 12/11/2025. There are similar contracts for Metro Ethernet services that are all site based and do not cover the breadth of sites and services the State's Network requires to remain operational. |
