EMA - Waste Hauling

The Illinois Emergency Management Agency is soliciting bids for waste hauling services under the EMA Waste Hauling contract opportunity, with proposals due August 25, 2026.

The scope includes hauling of expired and scrap pallets by type, with detailed quantity and specification information provided in an attached spreadsheet. Vendors must comply with the Standard Illinois Certifications v.26.2, which impose 34 mandatory certification requirements covering legal eligibility, financial integrity, ethical conduct, and regulatory compliance. These certifications apply to the contractor and all subcontractors throughout the contract term and any renewal periods. For contracts exceeding one year, contractors and subcontractors must recertify by January 1 of each subsequent fiscal year, reporting any changes affecting compliance with Article 50 of the Procurement Code. The certifications encompass educational loan default status, pension early retirement incentive history, criminal history disclosures, environmental compliance, tax obligations, drug-free workplace compliance, Illinois Information Technology Accessibility Act Standards compliance, non-participation in international boycotts and bid rigging, and political contribution restrictions under the Elections Code. False certifications carry significant penalties under the Illinois False Claims Act, including potential contract voidance, suspension, debarment, and civil or criminal penalties.

The Standard Terms and Conditions establish the contractual framework, including vendor performance standards, insurance requirements, indemnification, state and federal regulatory compliance, payment procedures, record-keeping obligations, and the state's audit rights. Vendors must incorporate Standard Illinois Certifications language into any subcontracts.

No contract value, term length, or incumbent is identified in the available materials.
