About this file
This document is an Emergency Purchase Extension Approval from the Chief Procurement Office for General Services of the State of Illinois. It pertains to the extension of an emergency contract for statewide radio maintenance and support services for various Illinois state agencies, including the Illinois State Police, local law enforcement, emergency medical services, and the Department of Corrections. The original emergency contract, with a value of $2 million, was issued in April 2022 and was set to expire in June 2022. This is the fifth extension request, which would extend the contract from July 2024 to October 2024, to allow time for the State to complete the competitive procurement process for a new comprehensive contract that includes radio equipment, maintenance, repair, and installation services.
The emergency contract supports critical life-saving communication equipment used by emergency response agencies across the state. The extension is necessary to ensure continuity of these essential services while the new competitive procurement is finalized. The new solicitation was issued in August 2023, with a bid opening in November 2023, and a notice of award posted in May 2024. This extension will allow for the negotiation and execution of the new contract to replace the emergency contract. The emergency contract maintains a 10% Business Enterprise Program (BEP) participation goal, which will continue through the extension period.

1. Provide detail about the events that led the agency to conduct an emergency procurement:
On 6/9/22 DoIT issued an IFB (B-29285) for JPMC for Radio Maintenance. Bids were due 6/23/22, but none were received. Because of this, DoIT decided to combine this JPMC for radio maintenance, installation and repair into a new IFB which would also include radio equipment. Combining equipment with maintenance, repair and installation into the same JPMC extended the timeline of the procurement. DOIT understood an emergency solicitation and possibly multiple extensions would be needed before this comprehensive contract could be completed, but even so there were some delays that could not be foreseen.
We are now at the final stages of contract negotiation, and this 5th emergency extension should provide us the time needed for contract execution.

The support services include radio support, repair, installation, radio tower site infrastructure for life saving communication services. These services provide an essential support service to the State of Illinois valuable emergency services communication using radio and if not supported would cause loss of life or injury
3. Does this extension change the scope of work? Yes No If yes, please detail below:
4. Provide justification for extending the original emergency contract:
DolT began drafting new IFB for Starcom21 Radio Equipment on February 1, 2022 and on June 9, 2022 IFB (B-29285) was issued for JPMC for Radio Maintenance on 6/9/2022. Bids opening date was scheduled for June 23, but no bids were submitted.
Discussions with end users on combining the Radio Maintenance and Radio Equipment IFB's into one took place between July 1 and September 1 of 2022. It was decided to combine the two procurements and DolT worked on drafting a combined IFB draft for a new JPMC which would include radio maintenance, repair, and installation with radio equipment. This occurred during September, October, November and December of 2022.
From the beginning of January 2023 through April 25th, the IFB went through multiple drafts and was reviewed by consultants for clarity and to ensure the State could award a comprehensive contract which covered all the needs of the State. Based upon the consultant feedback the new draft was provided to the end users for review and was approved back to ITPO on May 23, 2023
The next few months was spent working on revisions with the SPO and DolT Legal to review and update the IFB and pricing tables and to refine the document and secure approval to publish. The SPO approved final IFB draft on 7/27/2023. The new combined IFB was posted on 8/31/23 and the Bid Opening was on 11/1/23.
In November the previous lead spent time determining how to best show pricing for award. That lead left the agency in the spring and a new lead took over the procurement in March. As there were multiple subcontractors, collecting vendor disclosure documents took an extended time and when all vendor disclosures were obtained the bid was awarded to Motorola on 5/30/24.
Contract negotiations between DoIT Legal and Motorola began immediately and are still underway.

5. Does this emergency contract correct or eliminate the emergency condition?
Yes No Please detail:
Due to the critical life-saving nature of the hardware and services covered under this emergency contract, the emergency condition will continue until a new long-term non-emergency contract is in place to cover the hardware and services covered under this emergency.
DolT plans to award the new combined IFB, and have a new master contract in place by the end of this requested contract extension.
Therefore, the emergency condition will be eliminated by the end of this contract extension period (ending 7/30/24). This extension should allow enough time for the new combined IFB to be awarded, contract negotiated and contract executed.
This contract is critical to the life, health and/or safety of the citizens of the State of Illinois.
6. Explain why the need cannot be met through a competitive procurement process.
The Department of Innovation and Technology (DolT) is in the process of meeting this need through the new IFB in process. The new IFB was posted on 8/31/23 and the Bid Opening was on 11/1/23 and the notice of award was posted 5/30/2024. This emergency extension request is to allow time to award, and negotiate the terms and conditions for a new contract. The new contract awarded from this new IFB will replace this Emergency Radio Maintenance Contract.
7. Is a competitive procurement in process to replace this emergency contract?
Yes No Status: awarded but contract not executed
The new IFB was posted on 8/31/23 and the Bid Opening was on 11/1 /23 and the notice of award was posted 5/30/2024. This emergency extension request is to allow time to negotiate terms and conditions for a new contract.
8. What is the effect of a denial of this extension request?
This contract is critical to the life, health, and/or safety of the citizens of the State of Illinois. The risk of not receiving an extension for the Emergency Statewide radio maintenance contract for agencies in the State of Illinois would leave the state agencies with no way to purchase services for support of emergency radio communication devices, installation and repair of devices and would degrade radio service for emergency agency who rely on these services for daily use with emergency communications during life threatening situations. If these services are not supported by a new contract it would severely impact emergency service agencies ability to support emergency communications.
Statewide Radio Maintenance supports and services radio communication equipment that is used daily by Emergency Personnel, Police, Fire, Corrections, local law enforcement, Hospitals Emergency First responders to provide emergency radio communications to these
