About this file

The document is a Notice of Electronic Submission Only issued by the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services. It notifies bidders and offerors that the State will only accept electronic submissions for competitive solicitations through the BidBuy system, and that manual submissions in paper format or on electronic medium will not be accepted. The notice applies to Invitations for Bid (IFB) and Requests for Proposal (RFP) and supersedes any conflicting instructions in the solicitation documents.

The notice outlines specific requirements for RFP submissions, which must be made through two separate BidBuy bid numbers - one for the technical proposal and other required documentation, and a separate number for the pricing proposal. This ensures pricing information remains "locked" until after the technical evaluation is completed. The notice specifies that submissions will only be considered if received through BidBuy by the indicated time and date.

State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services Attachment – Notice of Electronic Submission Only V.20.1

Notice to Bidders and Offerors Regarding Acceptance of Only Electronic

Submissions

Pursuant to CPO Notice 2020.06, State agencies shall only accept electronic submissions for competitive solicitations (Invitation for Bid (IFB) and Request for Proposal (RFP)) through

BidBuy. Manual submissions in paper format or on electronic medium, for example USB drives or digital video discs (DVD), shall not be accepted nor considered.

When this notice is attached to the published solicitation, bidders and offerors are:

• notified and required to submit their response to the State’s solicitation through

BidBuy. Any information sent to the State outside of BidBuy, for example by US Mail, FedEx, UPS or hand delivery, will neither be accepted nor considered.

• notified that the requirement to submit electronic responses supersedes any conflicting instruction or information contained in the IFB or RFP. The IFB and RFP contain instructions when submitting bids or offers in paper format. These instructions do not apply and should not be considered as they may cause confusion.

• notified that submissions will only be considered if they are received through BidBuy and on or before the time and date indicated in the Bid Opening section within the solicitation. Any required attachments must be submitted via BidBuy.

NOTE: Requests for Proposals require vendors to submit documents through two separate

BidBuy Bid numbers.

Vendors must utilize the Primary Bid number to submit their technical proposal and other required documentation, for example Forms A or B. Vendors are NOT to submit their pricing document through the Primary Bid number.

Vendors must utilize the Secondary Bid number to submit their pricing proposal. This ensures that pricing remains “locked”, or unavailable to be seen, until after technical evaluations are completed.
