AGR - B&G - Black Can Liners

The Illinois Department of Agriculture is seeking bids for a contract to provide can liners. The Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) specifies the required quantities, sizes, and types of can liners, with deliveries to be made within 30 days of order receipt. Vendors must be established manufacturers or authorized dealers with at least 5 years of experience and the ability to provide parts and service within Illinois. The contract term is through December 31, 2023, and pricing must include all transportation and handling costs. The BOA outlines specific requirements around subcontractors, records retention, confidentiality, indemnification, and insurance. The contract is contingent on available funding, and the State may terminate the agreement for convenience or due to vendor non-performance.

The procurement is open to all qualified vendors, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The procurement does not list any incumbent vendors or current contractors, and there are no requirements for integration with existing infrastructure or technology. The BOA does not specify an award value or budget range, but interested vendors must submit their price proposals along with the completed forms and signatures to constitute their bids, which are due by June 22, 2023.
