CMS 6902 RFI Springfield

The State of Illinois Department of Central Management Services (CMS) is seeking to lease approximately 9,942 square feet of warehouse space within specified boundaries in Sangamon County, Springfield, Illinois. The initial lease term is five years with an optional five-year renewal. Respondents must demonstrate site control and ability to meet the State's requirements, including detailed tenant space configurations outlined in the RFI. Responses are due through the State's BidBuy system, and the State will negotiate with all responsive respondents. The successful respondent will be expected to negotiate and execute a lease with the State using the State's standard lease template, though exceptions may be considered. The State's evaluation criteria focus on responsiveness, responsibility, and pricing.

This opportunity is open to any qualified respondent, though the State's procurement process includes various certifications, disclosures, and compliance requirements. Respondents may request confidential treatment for portions of their responses, and the State reserves the right to reject any or all responses. The resulting lease is subject to a 30-day mandatory review period by the Illinois Procurement Policy Board before execution. The State has not identified any incumbent vendors or provided a budget range for this procurement.
