Change Order Notice - Gas Chromatographs

The Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA) is seeking a time-only change order to an existing contract with Agilent Technologies, Inc. for the procurement of gas chromatographs. Due to supply chain delays, the equipment is unable to be delivered within the originally expected timeframe. This change order extends the contract end date by an additional seven (7) months, from July 29, 2022 to February 28, 2023, to allow for the manufacturing and delivery of the equipment. The contract was originally awarded through a competitive procurement process. The change order does not indicate any changes to the pricing or other commercial terms of the contract.

The change order states that the circumstances necessitating the change in performance were not reasonably foreseeable at the time the contract was signed, and that the change is germane to the original contract. No additional set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are mentioned. The current incumbent vendor is Agilent Technologies, Inc., and the available budget range is not disclosed.
