About this file

This document is a sole source letter from Fluence Automation, LLC to the Illinois Department of Human Services regarding the Criterion/Apex outbound sorter with 2 tier X-Class pockets, Tag #95015A. As the single source manufacturer, Fluence Automation is the only provider of corresponding services, including maintenance, service, and equipment upgrades for this specific sorter. The letter states that the sorter requires an upgrade to the Apex front end along with a postjet printer due to the move away from Pitney Bowes Infinity meters, which can only be provided through Fluence Automation as the original equipment manufacturer.

The related state and local contract opportunity is for the purchase of equipment and software for the sorter under sole source conditions. The contract is for the Illinois Department of Human Services, and there will be a public hearing canceled unless an interested party submits written comments or requests a public hearing by Friday, December 4, 2020 at 4 p.m.
