About this file

This document is an email exchange between Angela Huckstep, Business Office Account Tech II at Danville Correctional Center (State of Illinois), and Rik Bhattacharyya of Mountain Merchants LLC regarding contract award 27-426DOC-DANVI-R-334449. The correspondence dated August 18-19, 2026 involves a request for execution of a Board of Agreement (BOA) to proceed with an order.

Mountain Merchants LLC withdrew from the contract award on August 19, 2026, citing a pricing error. Rik Bhattacharyya stated that the company had intended to bid at $899 per unit rather than the quoted rate of $699 per unit, and at the lower rate, the company could not provide the goods or services. Consequently, Mountain Merchants requested to be removed from consideration and asked that the procurement move to the next qualified vendor. No further contract details regarding specifications, quantities, or delivery terms are provided in this email correspondence.

Hi Angela, I just reviewed the quote we provided unfortunately I think there was a mistake on my end I thought we bid at $899 per unit. At the rate of $699 we wouldn't be able to provide this so I would ask for you to move to the next individual. My apologies on this.

Sincerely, Rik Bhattacharyya Mountain Merchants LLC
