About this file

This Emergency Purchase Statement is issued by the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services, specifically through the Central Management Services Division's Bureau of Strategic Sourcing. The document details an emergency procurement for Tech Electronics to address critical issues with the Fire Alarm and FM200 system at a facility located at 1391 S. Washington St. in DuQuoin, IL. The emergency stems from repeated system alarm activations that could potentially trigger a chemical agent release, which would shut down the 911 center and require professional cleaning before staff could return.

The emergency purchase is valued at an estimated $6,000.00, with an expected start date of 05/16/2025 and an estimated end date of 08/16/2025. Tech Electronics was selected due to their prior work on the system and status as the previous contract holder. The agency notes there are no Business Enterprise Program (BEP) vendors within 100 miles with the specialized knowledge required to service the system. The procurement will be funded through State Appropriated Funds, and no existing state contract was available for the required services. The document is signed by Martha Blackwell, Facilities Portfolio Manager, on May 20, 2025, certifying the emergency nature of the purchase and the efforts made to ensure competitive procurement.

Emergency Purchase Details Reference

#: 25-416CMS-BOPM4-B-47922

Emergency Category (select the appropriate option from the drop-down menu below):

Immediate expenditure is necessary for repairs to State property to protect against further loss or damage

Reason for selection of this particular vendor:

Tech Electronics has worked on the system in the past and was the previous contract holder. We are in the process of soliciting for a new contract but do not have one in place at this time. Therefore, using Tech Electronics is the best option we have of preventing the FM200 system from triggering.

Description of supplies or services to be provided:

The Fire Alarm and FM200 system alarms are going off at G1306, 1391 S. Washington St., DuQuoin, IL 62832. The Facility Manager on site has tried resetting the system and it is okay for a small amount of time but then the alarms re-activate.

Currently they have 2 devices in alarm and if the 3rd device alarms, the FM200 system will trigger the release of chemical agent believing there is a fire. If it activates, it will shut down the 911 center and the center will have to be professional cleaned before staff can return. They have tried manually to reset the system but to no avail. They need to call in a specialized company to correct the issue.

Emergency procurements shall be made with as much competition as is practicable under the circumstances, and agencies shall utilize best efforts to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program in its emergency procurement process. 30 ILCS 500/20-30(a).

List the actions taken by the agency that constitute its best efforts to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program in this emergency purchase:

There are no BEP Vendors within 100 miles of the location and most BEP vendors would not have the specialized knowledge needed to service this system.
