FY24 MIPRC Annual Membership Dues - Small Purchase with Sole Source Conditions

This state contract opportunity from the State of Illinois is for the FY24 annual membership dues for the Midwest Interstate Passenger Rail Compact (MIPRC). The procurement is classified as a small purchase with sole source conditions, meaning the contract will be awarded to a single, pre-qualified vendor. The contract requires the vendor to pay the annual membership fees for Illinois to maintain its membership and participation in the MIPRC, which coordinates passenger rail policy and projects across the Midwest region. The deliverable is the timely payment of the membership fees by the due date of November 13, 2023. The contract will be for one fiscal year, with a possible renewal option.

The State has attached the required Standard Illinois Certifications and Standard Terms and Conditions that the selected vendor must acknowledge and agree to comply with throughout the contract term. These cover a range of legal, ethical, and operational requirements for doing business with the State of Illinois. As this is a sole source procurement, there are no specific qualification criteria or evaluation factors listed. The estimated contract value is not provided, but the State has indicated it is a small purchase, typically for contracts under $100,000 in total value. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the type of vendor that may respond, as this is a unique membership fee payment rather than a competitive procurement.
