About this file
This document is a Response to Vendor Questions for Bid #27-426DOC-MENAR-B-53941 issued by the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) for Menard Correctional Center. The procurement concerns 225,000 pounds of White Tubular Knit Jersey fabric bolts to be used in the manufacturing of white T-shirts. The contract specifies an annual order of 75,000 pounds per fiscal year, which may be split into multiple shipments despite being issued as a single purchase order. The bid document initially contained an error referencing 120,000 yards per year, which IDOC clarified would be corrected in an updated contract amendment.
The previous price paid for white jersey fabric was $1.84 per pound. IDOC indicated that photographs of the fabric sample were unavailable at the time of the vendor question response. The responses confirm that despite potential for multiple shipments, vendors should expect a single annual purchase order structure rather than separate ordering cycles, establishing a predictable procurement pattern for qualified suppliers.
