About this file

This document is an Emergency Purchase Statement from the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services. It details the emergency procurement of fingerprinting and photo ID services from Biometrics Impressions Corp. for the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS). Until recently, DHS had been using a master contract with this vendor for these services, but the contract was unexpectedly terminated, necessitating this emergency procurement to prevent disruption of critical onboarding operations. The emergency purchase is estimated to cost $97,500 and run from March 27, 2024 to June 24, 2024.

The vendor, Biometrics Impressions Corp., is registered in the State of Illinois' Business Enterprise Program (BEP) and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB) programs. This emergency procurement was made with as much competition as was practicable, and DHS made best efforts to include BEP-certified contractors in the process. The purchase will be funded through state appropriated funds, as there is no existing state contract available that meets the department's urgent need.
