Exhibit Case Table

The Illinois Secretary of State issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) on May 7, 2026, seeking qualified vendors to provide three museum-quality exhibit case tables for historical artifact and exhibit display purposes. The procurement requires submission of detailed quotes including comprehensive product specifications, delivery timelines, and itemized pricing broken down by unit cost, materials, fabrication, delivery, and installation. Bidders must demonstrate relevant experience with similar museum-grade display case projects and provide references substantiating their capability to meet the Secretary of State's quality standards and delivery requirements. The RFQ specifies that responses must be submitted by the May 12, 2026 deadline, with delivery expected within a defined timeframe following contract award. The contract will be awarded to the responsive and responsible bidder offering the best value to the state. A Questions and Answers document was posted concurrently with the RFQ on May 7, 2026, providing clarifications on specifications, requirements, and procurement procedures to ensure consistent information for all interested vendors preparing their proposals.

This procurement does not include set-aside designations for minority or disadvantaged business enterprises, meaning all qualified vendors are eligible to compete for the contract award. The RFQ documentation does not identify any incumbent vendors, current contractors, or existing infrastructure requiring integration with the proposed exhibit case tables. No specific award value or budget range has been disclosed in the available procurement materials. Payment terms and funding sources will be determined according to the state's standard procurement practices. Vendors interested in responding should carefully review both the primary RFQ document and the Questions and Answers addendum to ensure full understanding of all technical specifications, performance standards, and procedural requirements governing this solicitation.
