Change Order Notice Vehicle Hoist Inspection, Repair, and Certification Services

This Change Order Notice issued by the Illinois Tollway (THA) through the Chief Procurement Office for General Services constitutes an amendment to existing contract 15-0050 for Vehicle Hoist Inspection, Repair, and Certification Services. The procuring jurisdiction is the Illinois Tollway, a state authority responsible for managing the Tollway System. The services required include annual inspection, replacement, repair, and mandatory certification for Rotary and Joyce brand vehicle hoists—both in-ground and above-ground lifts—located at various Tollway facilities. The incumbent vendor, Standard Industrial Automotive & Equipment Inc., must provide these services on an as-needed basis to maintain operational status of the hoists, which are critical to the Tollway's fleet vehicle maintenance operations. The services are essential for ensuring safe vehicle operations and protecting public safety on the roadway system, with certification lapses rendering hoists inoperable and disrupting critical maintenance functions. The posting date was March 16, 2026, with a due date of April 15, 2026 for submissions or inquiries. No specific evaluation criteria beyond the essential nature of the services are detailed in the available documentation.

This amendment is being posted as a Change Order Notice to the incumbent contractor, Standard Industrial Automotive & Equipment Inc., rather than as a competitive procurement. The change order adds an estimated $100,000 in funding to cover unforeseen repair costs through the contract expiration date of July 31, 2026, increasing the total estimated contract value to $557,274.85. The original contract was established for an initial five-year term from August 1, 2016 through July 31, 2021, with a five-year renewal period extending through July 31, 2026, consisting of original initial term value of $238,774.85, renewal value of $120,000, the first amendment of $98,500, and the current amendment of $100,000. This amendment qualifies for posting because it increases contract costs by more than $25,000, necessitating public notice. No specific set-aside designations, disadvantaged enterprise requirements, or restrictions on respondent eligibility are indicated in the available documentation.
