CHANGE ORDER NOTICE - Clamshell Simplex for Coal Hopper P-26283

This state contract opportunity is a change order notice issued by the Chief Procurement Office General Services in Illinois for the DHS - Murray - Small Purchase - Purchase/Install Clamshell Simplex Coal Hopper contract, identified as BBREFNO.: B-23524. The change order extends the present end date of 06/30/21 to 06/30/22 due to COVID-related manufacturing delays. The vendor has already ordered the required items and needs extra time to install them after their arrival. This change order is necessary as the circumstances necessitating the change were not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed, and the change is germane to the original contract. The contract is for the purchase and installation of a Clamshell Simplex Coal Hopper for the Illinois Department of Human Services.

The original contract term is being extended by one year to allow the vendor additional time to complete the installation after receiving the ordered items which have been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, and no information is provided about any incumbent vendors or current contractors. The original contract value is not specified, but the change order is necessary to allow for the completion of the installation.
