About this file

This document is a set of vendor instructions for responding to a Request for Proposal (RFP) issued by the Illinois Department of Human Services for State Operated Development Centers Staffing Consultants. The RFP seeks consultants to provide expertise in right-sizing staffing at these centers. The instructions outline the process for submitting a quote, including entering pricing information, attaching required documents, and ensuring file formats are compatible. Due to the COVID-19 emergency, only electronic submissions will be accepted. The contract term and any renewal options are not specified.

The instructions provide specific guidance on pricing, such as locking pricing information until after technical evaluations and prohibiting the inclusion of pricing or discount information in certain fields. They also detail the required attachments, including a separate pricing document if specified. Offerors are advised to review the pricing section of the solicitation document and mark the appropriate box when attaching a pricing document. No other details are provided about the pricing terms, set-asides, incumbents, funding sources, or amounts.

Items Tab
Follow instructions in the Pricing section of the solicitation document as to whether pricing will be entered in the Unit Cost of the Items Tab or submitted as a separate Pricing Document in the Attachments Tab.

Note: any pricing entered in the Unit Cost of the Items Tab will be locked until after Technical Evaluations take place. Do not enter cost, pricing, or any discount information in the Alternate Description field. Entering cost, pricing or discount information in the Alternate Description may result in disqualification.

Terms and Conditions Tab

Note: If taking any exceptions, please list exceptions in the Technical Proposal.

Attachments Tab
For each required quote attachment listed:

: “Upload” (next to each required attachment) : “Choose File” Note: If a pricing document is required, mark the box next to the question, “Does this Attachment contain any pricing, cost, or discount information?”

Failure to mark this box when attaching a pricing document may result in disqualification.

Check this box ONLY if a separate pricing document is required.

Do NOT check this box for any other required quote attachment such as the Technical Proposal, Forms A/Forms B, BEP Utilization Plan, or Offer.

Summary Tab
: “Submit Quote”

Documents shall be submitted in an electronic format that is accessible and readable using Microsoft Office suite software or Adobe Reader. Corrupted files shall not be considered. It is the Offeror’s responsibility to check that files are accessible and legible after uploading.

File size may impact the uploading and downloading speed and may lead to browser time-outs resulting in failed upload/download attempts. Please consider this dependency when attaching very large documents.

Due to the COVID-19 emergency declaration, closure of many State Buildings and escalated health concerns, paper submittals will not be accepted. For further information please see CPO Notice 2020.06 here: CPO Notice 2020.06 Procurement and Electronic Submission.pdf
