Questions and Answers #1
Date: 2/18/2025
Q1 Do you accept price adjustments on a yearly basis related to capital, inflation, or real estate price increases on warehousing.
A1 If those costs are included in the manufacturer’s price increase, then they would be reviewed, but the price increase is only to the MSRP list, and no other economic factors are considered.
Q2 I do not see the “Offer” documents to download and attach for this Hand Tools bid?
A2 Initially the Offer to the State of Illinois document was inadvertently omitted but was attached in
BidBuy by bid amendment #2. The Offer must be completed and returned with your bid submission.
Q3 On the header info sheet, it states “Only vendors qualified in the Small Business Set-Aside program may respond to the solicitation.” My question is how do I know if I am qualified? And where would I see if I am/am not?
A3 The Small Business Set-Aside program is administered through the Chief Procurement Office for General Services. Please see eligibility requirements at: https://cpo-general.illinois.gov/sell-2-illinois.html. Qualified Illinois small business must register for the small business set-aside program in the IL Procurement Gateway (IPG) at https://ipg.illinois.gov.
