The state of Illinois has issued an Invitation for Bids (IFB) for the procurement of chemical agents to be used in environmental remediation projects across the state. The IFB seeks bids for the provision of various types of chemical agents, including disinfectants, decontaminants, and neutralizing agents, with a total estimated quantity of 50,000 gallons to be delivered in multiple shipments over a 3-year contract term with two 1-year renewal options. Bids are due by October 25th, and a mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for October 18th. Pricing must be provided on a per-gallon basis for each chemical agent, with no minimum order quantities. The contract is expected to be awarded by November 15th, and funding will be provided through a combination of state and federal grant programs, with a total available budget of $5 million. Bidders must demonstrate the ability to meet all applicable environmental regulations and safety standards for the handling and transport of the requested chemical agents.

The IFB includes a 10% small business set-aside, and the current incumbent contractor is ABC Chemical Solutions. Bidders must be able to integrate with any existing infrastructure or technology required for the delivery and handling of the chemical agents. The total award value is estimated to be in the range of $3 million to $5 million, depending on the final quantities ordered and the pricing proposed by the successful bidder.
