FY26 IVHC SP/w/sole source condition- Lifts/Stands and Shower Chair Maintenance and Repair Services

The state of Illinois is seeking a small purchase contract for Lifts/Stands and Shower Chair Maintenance and Repair Services, identified under contract opportunity ID 684ba56a32a50c742f02f878. This procurement is designated as a sole source condition for fiscal year 2026, targeting specialized maintenance and repair services for medical mobility equipment. The primary objective appears to be ensuring continuous operational functionality of lifts, stands, and shower chairs, likely for healthcare or institutional settings. The contract opportunity was posted on June 10, 2025, with a submission deadline of June 13, 2025 - a notably tight timeline of just three days. Potential vendors must carefully review the attached standard terms and conditions document, which comprehensively outlines the state's procurement requirements, including insurance mandates, payment terms, and compliance expectations.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, the standard terms and conditions suggest potential considerations for minority contractors and standard state procurement diversity initiatives. The contract appears to be a specialized service procurement with potential integration requirements for existing medical equipment infrastructure. The attached standard terms and conditions document indicates robust insurance requirements, including $1,000,000 per occurrence commercial liability coverage and $2,000,000 annual aggregate coverage, which may serve as a qualifying threshold for potential vendors. Although specific budget ranges are not disclosed, the "small purchase" designation suggests a relatively modest contract value. The sole source condition implies a potentially limited competitive field, indicating the state may have predetermined or preferred service providers for these specialized maintenance and repair services.
