IDOC men ADA surface mounted wall showers JRA

The State of Illinois, specifically the Menard Correctional Center located in St. Clair County, is seeking bids for a procurement of 10 custom Willoughby Handicap Accessible Surface Mounted Wall Showers (CWSMS-HCA Series). This is a name-brand-only, custom-build procurement for ADA-compliant surface-mounted wall showers designed for correctional facility use. The specific product specifications include an 18-gauge Type 304 stainless steel construction with a #4 satin finish, featuring shower valves, shower heads, Z-clip mounting brackets, and optional ligature-resistant push buttons. Deliverables include the product only, with installation to be performed by Menard Correctional Staff, and a required delivery date of November 30, 2025. The contract will run from the last dated signature until June 30, 2026, with a maximum total contract term not exceeding ten years. The solicitation was posted on July 14, 2025, with proposals due by July 21, 2025, and interested vendors must carefully review the attached product specifications and standard terms and conditions.

While no explicit set-aside designations are mentioned, the procurement appears to have potential small business considerations. The contract is subject to state appropriation availability and can be terminated if sufficient funds are not allocated. Standard state procurement terms require vendors to maintain $1,000,000 per occurrence in general commercial liability and auto liability insurance, with worker's compensation insurance at legally required levels. The total contract value will be determined through the BidBuy Purchase Order process, though specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation. Vendors must comply with various state requirements, including equal opportunity provisions, anti-trust regulations, and comprehensive warranties for supplies and services. The product is manufactured by Willoughby Industries in Indianapolis, Indiana, and comes with a warning about potential cancer and reproductive harm, highlighting the importance of careful review of all specifications and terms before submission.
