DOC/penal toilets/AF

The State of Illinois, specifically the Pontiac Correctional Center in Livingston County, is seeking to procure 20 custom-manufactured penal toilets to replace inoperable toilets in condemned cells. The procurement is being conducted through a Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) with contract number 25-426DOC-PONTI-B-47689, targeting a specific toilet model M3331-W-1-BCN-HPS-TWE with an 18" welded waste extension. The detailed technical specification sheet provides comprehensive product requirements, including options for fixture mounting, waste disposal configurations, and seat selections. Bids are due by May 12, 2025, at 11:00am CST, with electronic submissions accepted through BidBuy or email. The contract term will commence upon final signatures and conclude on July 15, 2025, with a mandatory delivery timeline of 60 days from contract execution. Deliveries will be accepted Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., excluding state holidays, and pricing must be F.O.B. destination with all transportation and handling costs included.

The procurement appears to be a small purchase under $50,000, funded through the state's fiscal year 2025 budget, with no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation mentioned. The state reserves the right to award the bid in whole or part, and vendors will be responsible for shipping parts to the agency's warehouse receiving dock. No subcontractors are anticipated for this procurement, and the contract includes standard state provisions for payment terms, confidentiality, warranties, and performance expectations. The technical specification sheet indicates potential customization options, including material types (concrete or steel), wall thickness variations, and additional components like anchoring assemblies and electronic features. The procurement targets a specific Replace-Ware 3330 Blowout Jet Toilet, with the technical drawing dated 7/22/22, suggesting a recent specification. While the exact budget range is not explicitly stated, the contract value is noted to be under $50,000, indicating a relatively modest procurement effort focused on replacing critical infrastructure within the correctional facility.
