About this file

This document contains vendor instructions for responding to a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the State of Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) for an industrial high-capacity shredder with an automatic feeder and baler. The solicitation requires initial training on the equipment and a 2-year repair and maintenance agreement. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the State will only accept electronic submissions and paper responses will not be accepted. Vendors must follow the instructions provided in the "Vendor Instruction - Request for Proposal (RFP)" document, including entering pricing information on the Items Tab or submitting it as a separate Pricing Document, selecting the appropriate Terms and Conditions, and uploading all required attachments.

The pricing information entered on the Items Tab will be hidden from the State until after the technical evaluation is complete. Vendors must indicate if any attachments contain pricing, cost, or discount information to avoid disqualification. The contract term and any renewal options are not specified in the provided information.
