FY27 CRMHC- SP- with SS Conditions-TJC Membership Fee

The State of Illinois is soliciting responses for an FY27 small purchase contract with sole source conditions to procure annual Joint Commission membership fees for the Commission on Residential Mortgage Holding Company (CRMHC). This procurement specifically addresses yearly Joint Commission fees required for membership maintenance and compliance. The contract opportunity was posted on April 29, 2026, with a submission deadline of April 30, 2026, providing vendors with an extremely limited response window of one business day. The solicitation is governed by the State of Illinois Standard Terms and Conditions (Version 23.2), which establishes the framework for vendor performance, compliance, and contractual obligations. While the specific deliverables and service scope details are not extensively detailed in the available documentation, the procurement centers on the payment of annual membership fees to maintain The Joint Commission accreditation status. Vendors must demonstrate capability to process and manage these annual fee payments in compliance with state procurement regulations and maintain all records for the required audit periods.

The procurement is structured as a small purchase with sole source conditions, which may restrict competition and limit the pool of eligible vendors to organizations meeting specific qualification requirements tied to The Joint Commission membership fee administration. The documentation does not identify any incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. Vendors awarded contracts of $1,000 or more must pay a $15 administrative fee to the Comptroller's Administrative Fund and comply with prevailing wage requirements where applicable. General commercial liability insurance coverage of $1,000,000 per occurrence and worker's compensation insurance as required by law are mandatory. The specific budget or award value for this contract is not disclosed in the available procurement materials, though the annual nature of the fees suggests a recurring, ongoing cost obligation for the state agency.
