About this file
This is an Emergency Purchase Statement from the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services, involving the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) in the Disaster Planning and Readiness Division. The document details a second emergency procurement for Agiliti Health to continue administrative and logistical management of the state's ventilator cache, specifically covering the maintenance and repair of 365 ventilator units stored at the Strategic National Stockpile Regional Storage Site warehouse. The emergency contract is limited to a 90-day period, running from August 10, 2025, to November 7, 2025, while IDPH prepares to issue a new competitive solicitation for long-term agreement.
The total expenditure for this emergency contract is $650,973.60, funded entirely by federal funds. The procurement is justified by the vendor's established expertise and unique familiarity with the existing ventilator inventory, with IDPH noting that engaging a new vendor would require costly re-inspection and potentially compromise public health emergency readiness. Despite efforts to include Business Enterprise Program (BEP) certified vendors, IDPH determined that no alternative vendors could meet the urgent requirements. The contract will ensure continued inspection, preventive maintenance, repair, parts procurement, and performance verification of the ventilator units, with all devices to be returned to a fully operational state.

Emergency Category (select the appropriate option from the drop-down menu below):
Immediate expenditure is necessary for repairs to State property to protect against further loss or damage
Reason for selection of this particular vendor:
This second emergency procurement is necessary to ensure continued maintenance and repair of the State’s ventilator cache, following the expiration of the initial emergency contract. Agiliti Health, Inc. is selected for this short-term emergency due to its established expertise, ongoing service, and unique familiarity with the 365 ventilators currently under care.
Agiliti Health, Inc. has provided uninterrupted service under the original one-year agreement and the recently expired 90-day emergency contract. The vendor has completed full inspections, initiated repairs, and maintains detailed documentation on each ventilator's condition. This deep familiarity ensures efficient continuation of work without the delays or costs associated with on-boarding a new vendor.
Engaging a new vendor would require returning all ventilators for re-inspection, incurring estimated costs of $95,000 and significantly delaying the readiness of these critical public health assets. Such delays risk loss of federal funding and could compromise the State’s ability to respond to public health emergencies.
IDPH is now seeking a second emergency contract to continue these critical services beyond August 9, 2025, while a new competitive contract is finalized and awarded. the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is preparing to issue a new solicitation—25-482DPH-FINAN-B-48312 IFB for long term agreement. This new solicitation will be publicly advertised and competitively awarded as soon as possible.
This second emergency contract is limited to a 90-day period to provide continuity of service while the new solicitation process is completed. The pricing has been reviewed and deemed fair and reasonable based on prior negotiations and the vendor’s existing work. Continuing with Agiliti Health, Inc. under this short-term second emergency contract is the only practical solution to maintain ventilator readiness and protect public health.

Division: Disaster Planning and ReadinessAgency: Illinois Department of Public Health completion of repairs, performance verification, and logistical management for the return or deployment of the units. All ventilators must be returned to a fully operational, ready-for-use state, either shipped directly to healthcare facilities or returned to the RSS warehouse.
These ventilator devices, originally procured by the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA), were transferred to IDPH under an Intergovernmental Agreement. IDPH is now responsible for ensuring their ongoing maintenance and operational readiness to support emergency response operations across the state.
This 90-day second emergency agreement ensures critical continuity of services while the agency transitions to a new solicitation.
Emergency procurements shall be made with as much competition as is practicable under the circumstances, and agencies shall utilize best efforts to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program in its emergency procurement process. 30 ILCS 500/20-30(a).
List the actions taken by the agency that constitute its best efforts to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program in this emergency purchase:
In compliance with 30 ILCS 500/20-30(a), the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) made best efforts to include Business Enterprise Program (BEP) certified vendors in its emergency procurement process. A vendor search was conducted using NIGP code 938-78 (Hospital Equipment Maintenance and Repair Services), which identified a total of 78 vendors. Of these, only four vendors were certified under BEP.
Further evaluation revealed that two of the BEP-certified vendors rely on subcontractors to perform the actual work and therefore could not directly fulfill the requirements. The remaining two BEP vendors could not be reached despite multiple outreach attempts.
Due to the extremely limited availability of qualified BEP-certified vendors and the urgency of continuing critical ventilator maintenance services, IDPH determined that proceeding with the incumbent vendor was the only viable option.
For these reasons, the agency concluded that it was not practicable to utilize BEP-certified vendors for this emergency contract.
