CO Certificate of Safety Decals - IFB

The State of Illinois is conducting an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for the procurement of Commercial Vehicle Safety Certificates, Decals, and Stickers. The products required include truck, trailer, school bus, and rebuilt safety certificates, as well as year, month, and annual insert stickers. The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is the procuring agency, seeking a responsible vendor to meet detailed design, material, security, manufacturing, and testing specifications. Successful bidders must demonstrate the capability to produce and securely distribute the required materials, which are to be serially numbered and packaged for delivery to IDOT's Commercial Vehicle Safety Section. The bid due date is October 4, 2022, and the resulting contract will have an initial term through June 30, 2023, with no renewal options. Pricing is to be submitted as a loaded rate for each of the 10 commodity items listed, and the contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder with the lowest price.

This IFB does not contain any small, minority, women, or veteran-owned business set-aside requirements, and subcontractors are not allowed. The current incumbent vendor is Surys Inc., who was awarded a $137,178 contract for the same goods and services. The IFB does not specify a budget range, but the prior contract amount provides an indication of the potential award value.
