St. Clair County and the Illinois Small Business Development Center (SBDC) Lead Center are pursuing a sole source procurement for a three-year subscription to ProfitCents Software, with the contract spanning from July 1, 2025 to July 1, 2028. The procurement involves acquiring a comprehensive ProfitCents Suite software access package that includes unlimited consulting and training services for all new and current staff, along with complimentary access to online Continuing Professional Education (CPE) courses. The specific contract opportunity is identified by the State Local Contract Opportunity ID 67f69afdafe59389d809efc8 and was posted on April 9, 2025, with a proposal due date of April 15, 2025. The procurement appears to be a direct renewal with Abrigo, Inc., with the software intended to support the Illinois SBDC's operational and consulting needs. Evaluation criteria are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, though the sole source designation suggests a predetermined vendor selection. The procurement follows standard State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office General Services Standard Terms and Conditions version 23.2, which provides comprehensive guidelines for state procurement processes.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The documentation suggests this is a targeted procurement for the Illinois SBDC Lead Center, with Abrigo, Inc. as the incumbent and sole source vendor. The total contract value is $30,000.00 for the three-year term, with no additional tax charges and identified by customer number PC19518. The billing contact is Rebecca Griffith at the Illinois SBDC Lead Center in Springfield, Illinois. Payment options include online payment via an emailed link, by phone, or by mailing a check to Abrigo's renewal department in Dallas, Texas. While the standard terms and conditions document indicates provisions for minority contractor initiatives and potential tax credits for hiring qualified veterans and ex-offenders, no specific diversity or small business requirements are highlighted for this particular procurement. The software appears to be a specialized tool for business consulting and financial analysis, with the renewal maintaining continuity of existing technological infrastructure and service delivery.
