Amendment GAAP Package Preparation

This state and local contracting opportunity is for an amendment to an existing contract with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) for the preparation of the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) package. The amendment increases the maximum dollar amount of the existing contract, which is set to expire on December 31, 2018. The expenditures covered by the amendment are for the transfer of information from the previous vendor to the new vendor. The GAAP package preparation is required to allow the Office of the Comptroller to prepare the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report, and the IEPA must complete its portion of the GAAP submission in accordance with the Office of the Comptroller's deadlines. The pricing structure for the services is intended to be hourly.

The procurement justification indicates this amendment is necessary to meet the IEPA's legal obligations and time-sensitive requirements, as the GAAP preparation process begins in July of each year with most packages due by the end of August. No set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are specified. The incumbent vendor or any current contractors are also not listed, nor is any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The available award value or budget range is not provided in the documentation.
