Questions and Answers - Waste Removal Services Not on Master Contract.docx

This document is a Questions and Answers addendum related to a waste removal services bid issued by the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) at the SP Ludeman facility. The bid, numbered 26-444DHS-DEVDI-B-52629, addresses waste removal services that are not covered under an existing master contract. This Q&A document clarifies specifications and responsibilities between the bidding contractor and the state facility.

The waste removal services outlined in this bid specify that only 50-gallon toters are acceptable for the facility due to space constraints; 65-gallon toters cannot be accommodated. Regarding operational responsibilities, facility staff will be responsible for placing liners in the toters on each service day, with the contractor's obligation limited to delivering liners to the facility rather than installing them. These clarifications establish the baseline service requirements and operational protocols that bidders must acknowledge and comply with in their proposals.
