This is a Supply Requisition Form and vendor quote submitted to the Illinois Department of Physical Services by the Office of the Secretary of State for a fire alarm panel replacement project at the DMV facility located at 5301 W Lexington Avenue in Chicago. The requisition was initiated on June 8, 2026, by Gary Schneberger, Chief Engineer with the Chicago Engineers division. The vendor providing the quote and services is Contech, The Fire Alarm Company, a company empowered by Newport Industries and located in Rolling Meadows, Illinois.

Contech proposes to provide a complete replacement and installation of the existing Gamewell FCI-7200 fire alarm control panel with a new Gamewell E3 Series Panel in the existing location, along with replacement of the existing Gamewell Annunciator with a new E3 Compatible Fire Alarm Annunciator. The total contract price is $37,822.00, which includes engineering labor, permit fees, installation labor and materials, programming, technical support, and complete testing and checkout. The proposal explicitly excludes installation of new fire alarm conduit and wiring, paint and patch work, elevator recall upgrades, field device replacement, on-site monitoring costs, and lift charges. Contech assumes existing systems are in maintainable condition and reserves the right to charge for additional work if field conditions are degraded. The pricing is valid through 2027, and the agreement includes standard terms covering service hours (7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday), maintenance provisions, warranty coverage of one year for defective workmanship, and automatic renewal provisions subject to 30 days' written notice and potential price adjustments based on the U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index.
