About this file

This is an Emergency Purchase Statement for the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR), specifically from the Office of Resource and Capital Planning, documenting an emergency vehicle procurement. The document details the purchase of a 2023 Ford F-150 Extended Cab 4x4 from Morrow Brothers Ford, with an expected start date of August 4, 2025, and an estimated end date of November 2, 2025. The emergency purchase is justified by the urgent need for vehicles to enable employees to perform their jobs, as the current Master Contract vendor cannot provide vehicles within an acceptable timeframe.

The total expenditure for the vehicle is $48,817, which will be funded through State Appropriated Funds. The emergency procurement was made with consideration of competition and Business Enterprise Program (BEP) inclusion, though the agency notes that no BEP contractors were available under the relevant NIGP Code for class 1 trucks. The purchase was driven by the agency's restricted budget and significant deferred maintenance costs, with Morrow Brothers Ford being selected as the vendor due to having the lowest-priced brand new 2023 model vehicle that meets the agency's needs. The emergency purchase category selected indicates that the items were available on the spot market at a discounted price, necessitating immediate action to take advantage of the availability and pricing.

Emergency Purchase Details Reference

#: 26-422DNR-REALT-R-280748

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

Quick purchase as provided by Section 20-30(d) of the Illinois Procurement Code

Protecting the health and safety of any person

Items are available on the spot market or at a discounted price for a limited time so that good business judgment mandates a "quick purchase" immediately to take advantage of the availability and price

Rare items, such as items of historical value or art collections, are available for a limited time

The opportunity to obtain entertainment, speakers and athletic and other events or performances (not exempt under Section 1-13 of the Code) is available for a limited time.

Immediate action is necessary to avoid lapsing or loss of federal or donated funds

Reason for selection of this particular vendor:

The agency searched several vendor websites to find vehicles that would meet the agencies needs. Morrow Brothers was able to provide the vehicle at the lowest price due to them being the only vendor with brand new 2023 models. The price savings are paramount to an agency that has a restricted budget and has a billion dollars in deferred maintenance that causes unforeseen financial burdens.

Description of supplies or services to be provided:

2023 Ford F-150 Extended Cab 4x4

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:

The vendor has an F-150 currently on their lot that meets the needs of the agency. There is no opportunity to include Business Enterprise Program contractors on this purchase. The current Master Contract did not contain a BEP subcontracting goal requirement nor are there any BEP vendors registered under NIGP Code 072-02 describing the provision of class 1 trucks.
