DES - SPSSC - Mail Machine Maintenance FY23

This state and local contract opportunity is for the repair and maintenance of an Illinois Department of Employment Security (IDES) owned mail inserter by Pitney Bowes. It is a small purchase with sole source conditions, meaning the procurement is limited to a single, pre-determined vendor. The contract will provide for the repair and ongoing maintenance of the IDES mail inserter, ensuring the continued operation of the agency's mail processing capabilities. The successful vendor must have the necessary expertise and qualifications to service and maintain the specific Pitney Bowes equipment. The contract opportunity was posted on August 29, 2023 and proposals are due by September 1, 2023, indicating a short turnaround time for responses.

As this is a sole source procurement, there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The procurement is limited to Pitney Bowes as the sole authorized service provider for the IDES mail inserter. No incumbent vendor or budget range information is provided, though the value of the contract will be determined based on the vendor's proposed pricing and the actual maintenance and repair services required during the contract term.
