FIME Trade Show (ASEAN Exhibitions)

This state contracting opportunity is for a small purchase with sole source conditions related to the FIME Trade Show, an exhibition event in the ASEAN region. The State of Illinois is seeking a vendor to provide services related to this trade show, including potential exhibition booth setup, event logistics, transportation, and other support. The key objectives and deliverables are not explicitly stated, but would likely involve successfully representing the State of Illinois and facilitating business opportunities for Illinois-based companies at the trade show. Qualifications and evaluation criteria are not provided. The opportunity was posted on March 9, 2022 with a due date of March 14, 2022, indicating a very short turnaround time.

This opportunity appears to be a sole source procurement, meaning only a single vendor will be selected. The state has not designated any set-asides or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. There is no mention of an incumbent vendor or any specific budget or award value ranges. However, the state's standard terms and conditions around compliance with laws, use of subcontractors, payment processes, and other administrative requirements would apply to the selected vendor.
