Change order notice - MC meat casings for ICI cook freezer bags

The Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) is issuing a change order notice to extend Master Legacy Contract PSD4017752 for MC Meat Casings for the Illinois Correctional Industries (ICI) for a period of six months, from September 30, 2020 to March 30, 2021. These meat casings are used for meat production by ICI. The items were previously solicited as part of a Joint Purchase Master Contract for Bulk Food Items, but no responsive bids were received. CMS is extending the contract to allow for additional time to complete a new solicitation process for these goods. The change order notice indicates that the extension is necessary due to circumstances that were not reasonably foreseeable at the time the original contract was signed, and that the change is germane to the original contract.

The contract extension does not include any pricing terms, set asides, or funding details. The notice does not indicate any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide information on possible award values or budget ranges. Additionally, the notice does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond to the future solicitation.
