Emergency IOCI Satellite Broadcasting Equipment - Construction

This is an emergency procurement by the State of Illinois for construction services related to the removal and reinstallation of satellite broadcasting equipment located in St. Clair County. The procurement includes removing and reinstalling drop ceilings, removing and replacing fireproofing, removing portions of the existing ballast roof, and installing a new galvanized steel frame for a new satellite structure. The estimated cost of this emergency procurement is $193,000, with an expected start date of December 8, 2022 and an expected end date of March 8, 2023. The procurement is being funded through State appropriated funds and builds upon a previous emergency procurement for the satellite and engineering services which was declared under Statement B-28680. Due to time constraints with the scheduled crane for removing the old satellite and the timing of the roof upgrades, the agency is declaring this as an emergency procurement using the vendor most familiar with the project needs.

The procurement is open to all qualified vendors, but there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The Emergency Purchase Statement does not indicate any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The $193,000 estimated cost represents the total budget for this emergency procurement.
