The State of Illinois, through the Illinois Department of Veterans Affairs, is procuring the purchase and installation of motorized retractable awnings for the Huntington Hall Courtyard at the Illinois Veterans Home in LaSalle, Illinois. The awnings must be 18' wide by approximately 11'8" in length, with acrylic fabric, vinyl covers, and mason brackets for installation into the brickwork. The vendor must provide all labor, materials, and equipment needed for the installation, as well as training for the Chief Engineer and an Activities representative on operating the awnings. The project must be completed by July 15, 2022, with all work scheduled through the Chief Engineer and performed Monday through Friday between 7:00 am to 4:00 pm. The vendor is responsible for securing the work area, clearing debris, and providing a 1-year warranty for labor and materials. The Request for Quote (RFQ) requires the vendor to provide a total quote price, which must remain valid for 180 days. The vendor must be bonded and insured, and adhere to COVID-19 safety protocols as outlined in the Governor's Executive Orders. The agency reserves the right to reject any or all offers, and the winning vendor will be selected based on the lowest total bid.
