Bendix Software for DOV Traveling Mechanics

The State of Illinois, Division of Vehicles, is conducting a small purchase with sole source conditions for 67 licenses of Bendix ACom Pro Braking Systems Diagnostic Software for mechanics who work on large truck brake systems. This is not a bid opportunity, but rather a one-time purchase governed by a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) contract. The BOA contract number is 21-416CMS-AGSV4-R-93219 and has a term from the date of execution through June 30, 2021, with no renewal options indicated. The procurement also includes the acquisition of various quantities and sizes of light jackets with an embroidered CMS logo. Pricing is provided on a per-unit basis, and the State will not pay for any expenses incurred prior to the contract's execution. The contract is subject to the availability of appropriated funds, and the State reserves the right to terminate for convenience with 30 days' notice.

The procurement is limited to the jurisdiction of St. Clair County, Illinois, and is not open to a broader competition. Vendors must comply with the State's Standard Certifications, which cover a range of requirements related to civil rights, employment practices, political contributions, and accessibility of information technology. There is no indication of any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The total value of the contract is not provided, but the quantities and pricing suggest it is a modest procurement with a limited budget.
