DNR - Black Hawk SHS Museum Window Replacement - SPEC

The Illinois Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has issued a small purchase contract with emergency conditions for window restoration at the Black Hawk State Historic Site. The procurement specifically involves Renaissance Restoration, Inc. being contracted to restore five windows at the historic site location. The contract opportunity, identified by the number 68533fa1516ef1c0760d5dac, was posted on June 2, 2025, with a submission deadline of June 23, 2025. The contract is focused on a targeted restoration project within Rock Island County, with jurisdictional overlap including Rockford City. While described as a small purchase, the project appears to require specialized historic restoration skills, suggesting potential requirements for vendors with experience in preservation and historical building maintenance. The procurement is not a traditional service solicitation, but a direct contract for specific restoration work.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation were explicitly outlined in the provided documentation. The contract appears to be a direct award to Renaissance Restoration, Inc., which suggests this may be a sole-source procurement based on the vendor's specific qualifications or prior relationship with the Illinois DNR. The opportunity does not indicate a comprehensive bidding process or competitive solicitation. While a precise budget range was not specified, the scope of replacing five windows at a state historic site implies a likely modest contract value. The emergency conditions noted in the procurement description suggest potential urgency or critical maintenance needs for the historic site's infrastructure. No additional details were provided regarding disadvantaged enterprise participation or integration requirements with existing site technologies.
