About this opportunity
The Illinois State Police Forensic Services Division, through the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office for General Services, has issued an emergency notice for repair services to two inoperable 7500 thermal cycler units at the Rockford Forensic Science Laboratory, with work authorization effective August 21, 2026 and a formal solicitation due date of September 9, 2026.
This is a sole-source emergency procurement. Remi Holdings, LLC has been selected as the vendor. The state made competitive outreach to Fisher Scientific and Remi Holdings, but Fisher Scientific did not respond; Remi Holdings is the only vendor capable of providing manufacturer-trained or manufacturer-authorized service within the required emergency timeframe. The state determined that no Business Enterprise Program-certified vendors possessed the technical qualifications — manufacturer training or authorization is mandatory for these specialized forensic DNA instruments.
The scope encompasses onsite diagnostic evaluation, troubleshooting, component replacements, and performance verification to restore both units to full operational status and forensic testing standards. The instruments are critical to processing forensic casework and evidence analysis directly supporting criminal investigations and public safety operations.
The estimated contract value is $7,900.00. The state designates this as estimated; if actual costs differ, an Emergency Final Cost form must be submitted by the tenth day of the succeeding month. Funding is sourced as "Other" rather than federal, state appropriated, or state grant funds. Work commenced August 21, 2026, with authorization signed by Lindsey Storm, Assistant Bureau Chief, on August 25, 2026.
