FY25 D2 First Aid Kit & Wall Mounted Eye Wash Station with 90 Day Re-Stock and Re-Fill Service

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) District 2 is seeking a contractor to provide first aid kits and wall-mounted eye wash stations with a comprehensive 90-day restocking and maintenance service for 19 maintenance facilities across various locations in Boone County and surrounding areas, including Belvidere, Rockford, Eleroy, Stockton, and others. The contract, designated as B-46166, will span 24 months and requires the successful vendor to install new ANSI Z358.1-compliant eye wash stations and ANSI Class B first aid kits at each facility, followed by quarterly inspections, supply replenishments, and maintenance services. Key deliverables include replacing expired supplies, performing 15-minute eye wash station flushes, maintaining detailed service documentation, and ensuring compliance with OSHA safety regulations. The procurement opportunity was posted on January 9, 2025, with proposals due by January 23, 2025. Vendors must provide comprehensive services including installation, quarterly restocking, emergency replenishment, and adherence to all local, state, and federal safety standards.

The contract does not appear to have specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but it does include requirements for employment of Illinois workers during periods of excessive unemployment. No incumbent vendor is mentioned in the documentation. Vendors must meet stringent insurance requirements, including $1,000,000 per occurrence for General Commercial Liability and Auto Liability, with $2,000,000 annual aggregate coverage. Critically, no subcontracting is permitted, and all services must be performed directly by the awarded vendor within the United States. While specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the contract includes firm pricing that must encompass all labor, parts, materials, equipment, and disposal costs, with no additional reimbursement for mileage, travel time, lodging, meals, or incidental expenses. The contractor will be responsible for providing self-contained eye wash stations that require no plumbing or water heater connections, simplifying installation and maintenance requirements across the 19 maintenance facilities.
