The Illinois Department of Human Services is soliciting a sole-source subscription to PracticeWise for fiscal year 2027, with proposals due May 26, 2026. This is a small purchase classified under sole-source conditions, indicating limited competitive opportunity.

The scope is an annual subscription for FY27; specific user licenses, access levels, or feature requirements are not detailed in the posting.

Vendors must meet standard Illinois certifications as outlined in the Standard Illinois Certifications document version 26.2, which establishes mandatory prerequisites including current business licensing, absence from debarment, compliance with applicable state and federal laws, and certification of accurate bid information. These certifications apply uniformly across all Illinois state contract opportunities.

Contract terms include payment under the State Prompt Payment Act with invoicing required by July 31 for services rendered through June 30. Vendors must maintain general commercial liability insurance of $1 million, worker's compensation insurance where applicable, and retain audit records for three years (or five years if federal funding is used). The contract is subject to appropriation availability and may be terminated for convenience with thirty days' notice or immediately for cause. Vendors must obtain prior written approval for any subcontractors, comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, and indemnify the State against claims. Illinois law governs the contract, and disputes are resolved exclusively through the Illinois Court of Claims. The State retains sovereign immunity.
