IDOC - FS - emergency notice - stateville heat exchanger - carh

This is an emergency procurement by the Illinois Department of Corrections (IDOC) for the rental of a heat exchanger at the Stateville Correctional Center. The boiler system providing hot water to the facility has failed, resulting in insufficient water temperatures for proper sanitation and hygiene. The vendor, Aggreko, LLC, was selected due to their familiarity with the facility and ability to immediately provide the necessary equipment to restore hot water capabilities. The expected start date is October 22, 2022, with an estimated end date of January 18, 2023, at an estimated cost of $120,000. This emergency measure was taken to prevent serious disruption in critical state services that affect health and safety.

While the agency attempted to include contractors certified under the Business Enterprise Program, the immediate nature of the situation precluded feasible participation at this time. The funding source for this expenditure will be state appropriated funds. This is not a bid opportunity, as it is an emergency procurement, and interested parties should not submit bids. The current incumbent vendor is Aggreko, LLC, and the procurement will require integration with the facility's existing infrastructure and technology.
