ENG TRAINING.pdf

This document is a Small Purchase with Sole Source or Immediate Need Conditions form from the Illinois Office of the Secretary of State's Budget & Fiscal Management Department. The contract involves Siemens Industry INC as the vendor, with an estimated value of $7,700.00 for training related to the Capitol Environmental Control System.

The purchase is for Siemens training for a new Control engineer, specifically focused on the Deseigo system, which is described as unique to the Capitol and a sophisticated system designed specifically for internal SOS trades service. The training will enable the new Control engineer to facilitate troubleshooting and repairs using internal SOS trades, and covers workstation, programming, and site operations. The justification for sole source is that the system was originally designed and installed by Siemens, with the specific engineer Joe Rhodes being the original installer, and the institutional knowledge would be lost without this direct training.
