DJS-Shaw Flooring Supplies-CB

The Illinois State Police is procuring flooring installation supplies through a sealed bid procurement designated DJS-Shaw Flooring Supplies-CB, with proposals due by March 26, 2026. The procurement encompasses a comprehensive range of carpet and flooring materials required for installation across three Illinois State Police district locations: District 8 in Metamora, District 18 in Litchfield, and District 10 in Pesotum. Specific deliverables include carpet tile adhesives, cove base thermoplastic rubber (totaling approximately 4,560 linear feet across all locations), wall base adhesives with application nozzles, floor primers, skim coat materials, trowels, doorway transitions in multiple styles and colors, vinyl composition tile (42 cartons at the Litchfield location), two-part urethane adhesive, metal stair nosing, and primer for metal substrates. All supplies must be delivered within 60 days of contract execution during business hours between 9:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, with no holiday deliveries permitted. A critical requirement is that all vendors must be Shaw authorized dealers or distributors and must submit proof of authorization with their bids; estimated freight costs to each location must be included in pricing. While no specific evaluation criteria are detailed in the available documentation, vendors must comply with standard State of Illinois terms including maintenance of general commercial liability insurance ($1,000,000 per occurrence/$2,000,000 aggregate), compliance with prevailing wage obligations, and adherence to all federal, state, and local laws.

The procurement documentation does not identify any set-aside designations or restrictions limiting response to specific enterprise categories. No incumbent vendors or current contractors are referenced in the available materials. Vendors must meet the foundational requirement of Shaw authorized dealer or distributor status and must demonstrate compliance with the State Prompt Payment Act requirements, including invoicing deadlines of July 31st for work completed through June 30th, and maintain three-year record retention (five years if federal funds are involved). The contract is contingent upon appropriation availability, allowing the State to terminate or suspend performance without penalty if funding becomes unavailable. No specific award value or budget range is provided in the posted materials; however, the scope encompasses materials for three separate facility locations with varying quantities, suggesting a contract of moderate procurement significance for the State Police capital improvement initiative.
