Emergency Fire Cleanup Services D4 Peoria West

This is an emergency procurement by the State of Illinois for fire restoration cleaning services at the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) District #4 Peoria West Yard, which experienced significant smoke and fire damage after a dump truck caught fire in one of the bays. Due to the presence of carcinogenic materials, the entire facility was condemned and required immediate cleaning by a professional fire restoration company. SERVPRO was selected as the vendor to provide the necessary labor, equipment, and materials to clean the office space and six remaining truck bays and restore the facility's operations as soon as possible, with an expected start date of October 27, 2023, and an expected end date of November 10, 2023, at an estimated cost of $152,343.25. This emergency purchase was made with as much competition as practicable, and best efforts were made to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program.

The procurement was funded through State appropriated funds, and due to the emergency nature and presence of hazardous materials, there was no existing state contract that could meet the immediate need. SERVPRO was selected as the first vendor to respond and able to provide the necessary services within 12 hours. The restoration plan prioritized the immediate cleaning of the office space and remaining truck bays to restore operations, while the more extensively damaged bays would require a separate procurement process through the Capital Development Board. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, and the incumbent vendor is SERVPRO.
