About this file
This is a Notice of Award form issued by the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services documenting the award of contract B-53178 for Enhanced Audit Services to the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS). The contract, awarded to Myers and Stauffer LC, involves providing audit staff for enhanced monitoring of grantees under the Office of the Executive Inspector General's ongoing investigations. The scope of work requires vendors to develop request lists for OEIG-identified grant recipients, review supporting documentation for distributions made between 2022 and 2026, and perform compliance testing on individual expenditures to verify allowability under applicable federal and statutory requirements, with testing for each review estimated not to exceed 60 hours. The contract term runs from January 1, 2027, through December 31, 2029, with a renewal option extending from January 1, 2030, through December 31, 2032. The original bid opening occurred on July 28, 2026, with the Notice of Award executed on July 30, 2026.
Myers and Stauffer LC was selected as the lowest responsive and responsible bidder with a total award amount of $1,406,040.00, comprising an initial term value of $696,675.00 and a renewal term value of $709,365.00. Five unsuccessful bidders competed for the contract, with bid amounts ranging from $1,692,750.00 to $2,988,240.00. A mandatory Business Enterprise Program (BEP) participation goal of 4 percent applied to the procurement; however, the awarded vendor indicated 0 percent BEP utilization in their plan. All subcontractors with annual values exceeding $100,000 require prior written approval. The vendor must maintain books and records for three years from final payment or contract completion, or five years if Federal funds are used, and must carry General Commercial Liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence with $2,000,000 annual aggregate, Auto Liability of $1,000,000, and Worker's Compensation Insurance as required by law. The agency contact is John Baumgartner at the DHS Office of Contract Administration in Springfield, Illinois.
