About this file

This is an Addendum to a Request for Innovative Solutions (RFIS) issued by the Illinois Department of Early Childhood (IDEC). The addendum revises the milestone schedule for the procurement process while maintaining all other original RFIS requirements and conditions. Key dates have been extended across the procurement timeline: the deadline for submitting questions has been moved from November 26 to December 10, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. CT; responses to questions will be posted by December 17, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. CT; RFIS responses are due December 29, 2025 at 12:00 p.m. CT; internal review of submissions will be completed by January 12, 2026; interviews and presentations have been rescheduled to January 21-22, 2026; finalists will be selected by January 27, 2026; pricing proposals from finalists are due February 2, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. CT; and the vendor selection is anticipated for February 9, 2026. All submissions should be directed to DEC.Procurement@illinois.gov, and vendors must acknowledge receipt of this addendum in their submission email or cover page.

The addendum does not address pricing terms, set asides, incumbent information, or funding details, as these elements remain governed by the original RFIS document issued on November 17, 2025. This addendum was issued on December 1, 2025, by Matthew Lehman, Agency Procurement Officer for the Illinois Department of Early Childhood.
