JPMC Personal Care Products Approval Letter.pdf

This is an approval letter from the Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) regarding a joint purchase master contract between CMS and Elm City Rehabilitation Center dba Elm City Center. The contract, which provides employment and job training for 13 persons with disabilities, was approved by the State Use Committee for a term running from 03/22/2025 through 03/21/2030 with no renewal option. The contract authorization allows direct contracting without advertising or competitive bidding.

The total contract value is $8,409,701.50, though as a joint purchase master contract open to all governmental units and qualified not-for-profit agencies, actual spend may vary from this estimate. The Committee has determined the pricing to be fair and reasonable in accordance with 30 ILCS 500/45-35. The letter requires posting of the contract notice on BidBuy for transparency and requests submission of the executed contract copy to CMS for their files.
