About this opportunity
The Illinois Department of Human Services posted a Procurement Code Exempt Contracts Form on June 4, 2026, disclosing one exempt contract awarded in May 2026 under 30 ILCS 500/1-10(b) and 1-12(b). This is a transparency notice, not a bidding opportunity.
The contract, awarded to YWCA of the Quad Cities, covers youth placement services with a total value of $3.168 million over a term running from May 1, 2026, through June 30, 2028. The exemption invoked is Illinois Procurement Code Section 1-10(b)(3), which permits direct purchase of care services without competitive bidding.
The form includes reference materials detailing all 18 categories of procurement exemptions available under Illinois law, spanning care purchases, real estate acquisitions, litigation preparation, public-private agreements, cannabis regulation implementation, and other specialized state functions. DHS is required to post exempt transactions exceeding $100,000 in annual value to the Illinois Procurement Bulletin as part of statutory transparency compliance.
