Automatic Truck Wash Maintenance Contract D6 - Sole Source

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is issuing a sole source contract for Automatic Truck Wash Maintenance. IDOT recently purchased a new automatic truck wash from Interclean and requires a maintenance contract to provide preventative maintenance, parts, repairs, and chemicals necessary to keep the equipment operational. The contract will have an initial one-year term starting on January 1, 2022, with no renewal options, and an estimated value of $120,000. IDOT has determined that Interclean is the sole source that can service and maintain this specific truck wash equipment, as well as provide the required parts and chemicals. IDOT has negotiated the pricing with Interclean and considers it fair and reasonable based on past services and other truck washes used by the department. This sole source contract will obligate IDOT to use Interclean for any future maintenance, parts, or chemical needs for the life of the truck wash equipment.

This is a sole source procurement, meaning only Interclean can provide the required maintenance and services. The contract is limited to Interclean, and no other vendors can submit proposals. If this sole source is not approved, IDOT will not be able to utilize the new truck wash, as they will not have a service contract in place to perform necessary maintenance and repairs. The hearing scheduled for December 22, 2021 will be canceled unless an interested party submits written comments or requests a public hearing by December 17, 2021.
