EMERGENCY NOTICE - NO BIDS ACCEPTED - - COVID Cleaning Services

The Illinois Chief Procurement Office for the Department of Human Services (DHS) is seeking to establish a new 90-day emergency contract to procure on-demand cleaning services for various DHS office locations where a COVID-19 positive exposure has been identified. The emergency contract will be awarded to DSI Holdings Corp dba ServiceMaster Recovery, who previously provided emergency COVID-19 cleaning services at more cost-effective time and materials rates compared to other vendors' square footage-based pricing. The scope of the contract includes procuring cleaning services to meet applicable standards and compliance requirements, including those set by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with an estimated expenditure of $1,500,000. The expected term of the contract is from July 1, 2021 to September 30, 2021, with no opportunity for extensions.

This emergency procurement is limited to the Department of Human Services in St. Clair County, Illinois, and is not open to other state agencies or jurisdictions. The contract will be funded through state appropriated funds, and there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor, DSI Holdings Corp dba ServiceMaster Recovery, has been selected based on their prior agreement to provide the required emergency cleaning services at more favorable rates than other providers.
