Bendix ACom PRO Brake Diagnostic Software Subscription SP SS for DOV.

The State of Illinois, through the Central Management Services Division of Vehicles, is conducting a Small Purchase with Sole Source Conditions procurement for the acquisition of Bendix ACom PRO Brake Diagnostic Software Subscriptions for all Department of Vehicles (DOV) Garages. This is not a bid opportunity, but rather a sole source purchase of the specialized Bendix software needed for the maintenance and repair of vehicles within the DOV fleet. The contract will be awarded to Noregon Systems LLC, the sole provider of the required Bendix software, for a total of 73 software subscriptions at a unit price of $399, equating to a total contract value of $29,127. The contract term will be from December 30, 2023, to December 30, 2024. The procurement is guided by the State of Illinois Standard Terms and Conditions, which outline requirements for payment, subcontracting, audits, confidentiality, indemnification, insurance, and other legal and operational aspects.

This procurement is restricted to Noregon Systems LLC as the sole source provider of the Bendix ACom PRO software required by the DOV Garages. No subcontractors will be utilized. The contract value of $29,127 is below the $50,000 threshold for a Basic Ordering Agreement, and the procurement method of a Small Purchase with Sole Source Conditions indicates that this opportunity is not open to broader competition. The incumbent vendor, Noregon Systems LLC, is the only firm capable of providing the specialized software needed to maintain and repair the state's vehicle fleet.
