The state and local contracting opportunity is for the procurement of various ice cream cup products for the Quincy Illinois Veterans Home (IVHQ) for fiscal year 2025. The agency is requesting quotes for 800 cases of vanilla, 450 cases of chocolate, and 400 cases of strawberry ice cream cups, all packaged in 48 4-ounce styrofoam containers per case. The products will be ordered on an as-needed basis throughout the fiscal year. Vendors must submit their quotes via email or through the BidBuy procurement system by March 13, 2024. The selected vendor must be able to provide all required supplies and offer the lowest price. The agency reserves the right to reject all offers and to cancel orders up to 72 hours in advance. The pricing requirements must include all shipping and handling charges, and no price increases will be accepted. A minimum 1-year warranty is required on all products.

This is a small purchase procurement for the state of Illinois, specifically in Adams County. The state's Standard Illinois Certifications, which cover a wide range of financial, ethical, legal, and operational requirements, must be complied with by the prime contractor and any subcontractors. There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, and no incumbent vendors or current contractors are listed. The budget range for this procurement is not explicitly stated, but the agency is seeking the lowest price from qualified vendors.
