About this file
This document is a Q&A from the Illinois Department of Central Management Services regarding the JPMC Police Supplies 21-416CMS-BOSS4-B-21507 solicitation. The solicitation does not require vendors to use specific pre-listed subcontractors, as long as any proposed subcontractors are Businesses Enterprise Program (BEP) certified with the State of Illinois at the time of bid submission and are applicable to the requested NIGP codes. The solicitation also allows for the use of additional NIGP codes beyond those listed, subject to agency approval, as long as the subcontractors can perform a commercially useful function. The solicitation is for the provision of pistol and revolver supplies, with line item 8 not specifying a particular make or model.
The solicitation does not provide any information on pricing terms, set asides, incumbents, funding requirements, or other financial details. The responses focus on addressing vendor questions about the subcontracting requirements and allowable NIGP codes for proposed BEP subcontractors.

Questions and Answers 1 5/18/2021
| Q1 |
| Do we have to use a vendor from the vendor listing provided? |
| A1 |
| Section A.22 of the IFB document provides the answer to this question. Specifically, “This is not an all-encompassing list of who may be used as a subcontractor to fulfill this goal. If you have a potential subcontracting opportunity for goods or services by a vendor subject to the NIGP codes referenced in solicitation documents that would be considered applicable to the resulting contract, you may submit that subcontractor to fulfill the BEP goal, assuming they are BEP certified with the State of Illinois at the time of bid submission. Only vendors certified as BEP at the time of bid submission and subject to the code(s) above shall count towards the goal”. |
| Q2 |
| Can we use a vendor that is certified in different codes not on the list but can provide the same services you are requesting for this solicitation? |
| A2 |
| This question is covered on page 12 of the BEP Uplan under the “Contract (Specific) Goal to be Achieved by Vendor”. Specifically, “Prime Vendors must only consider NIGP Class and Class Item codes referenced in solicitation documents when selecting BEP/VSB subcontractors or completing a Good Faith Effort. Subject to State Agency/University approval, the Prime Vendor may utilize additional codes to identify BEP/VSB |
vendors that will be able to perform a commercially useful function under the resulting contract through direct participation”. Direct participation is defined as “directly related to the completion of the scope of work of the contract”.
| Q3 |
| Regarding item 8, is this intended for a certain weapon make and model? |
| A3 |
| The line item provides “FOR PISTOLS AND REVOLVERS” which does not intend for a certain make and model. |
