Emergency Notice MC Electrical Southern

This state and local contract opportunity is for emergency electrical services in the Southern region of Illinois. The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office is issuing this contract to Wissehr Electric Inc. to provide general and emergency service for electrical systems, including distribution, wiring, fixtures, panels, breakers, and equipment for facilities located in counties south of Interstate 70. The estimated cost of this emergency contract is $96,480.00, with a term of July 1, 2021 through September 29, 2021, or until a statewide master contract is executed. The justification for this emergency contract is that the previous contract with Wissehr Electric Inc. expired on June 30, 2021, and a 6-month extension was denied. Failure to execute this emergency contract would result in electrical service problems not being corrected in a timely manner, impacting critical facilities such as the Illinois Department of Public Health COVID-19 laboratory, the Illinois Department of Transportation District 9 Headquarters, and the Department of Children and Family Services offices. The State is utilizing state appropriated funds for this emergency procurement.

This contract is restricted to the incumbent vendor, Wissehr Electric Inc., as there is an immediate need for electrical services and the previous contract has expired. No disadvantaged enterprise set-asides or restrictions are mentioned. The state has not provided a specific budget range, but the estimated value of this emergency contract is $96,480.00.
