This document is a Small Purchase with Sole Source or Immediate Need Conditions form from the Office of the Secretary of State's Budget & Fiscal Management Department in the State of Illinois. The vendor is The Office Pal, and the document pertains to a purchase of Lexmark toner and imaging kits for the state agency.

The purchase involves specific Lexmark printer supplies (item numbers 55B1H00 and 55B0ZA0) for MS431 printers, with an estimated total value of $68,960.00. The agency is seeking these supplies on an urgent basis while waiting for a formal bid process, as their warehouse team has indicated they will run out of inventory within a week. The Office Pal, their last contracted vendor, has maintained minimal price increases from the previous contract, with 55B1H00 priced at $148.68 each (need up to 400) and 55B0ZA0 priced at $46.88 each (need up to 200). If the purchase is not approved, the agency warns that operations will come to a halt, specifically impacting their ability to print stickers for registration renewals.
