EMERGENCY - 18-0092 Out of State Registration Retrieval Services

The State of Illinois is procuring emergency out-of-state registration retrieval services for the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority. This sole-source emergency contract is being awarded to Law Enforcement Systems, LLC to gather registered vehicle owner information from state DMVs across the U.S. and Canada, enabling the Tollway to pursue toll violators for collection of fees and fines. The emergency procurement is necessary due to the incumbent vendor, RGA Solutions LLC, being unable to provide the required services. The expected term of this emergency contract is from July 2, 2018 to October 1, 2018, with an estimated expenditure not to exceed $700,000. The funding for this emergency procurement will come from sources other than federal, state appropriated, or state grant funds. This emergency contract is required because without these services in place, the Tollway risks jeopardizing $250,000 to $450,000 in weekly revenue from toll violations.

The contract is being awarded as a sole-source emergency procurement to the prior incumbent vendor, Law Enforcement Systems LLC, as the current incumbent vendor, RGA Solutions LLC, is unable to meet the requirements. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, as this is an emergency sole-source procurement. The estimated value of the contract is not to exceed $700,000 for the 3-month term.
