Bidders may claim the Illinois Business Preference, which requires a submitted affidavit, and the Domestic Product Preference, which requires notation in the Alternate Description field for qualifying line items. Under the domestic preference, U.S.-manufactured products receive preference unless they are unavailable in reasonably available quantities, priced more than 12 percent higher than comparable foreign products, or substantially lower in quality.

The vehicles support statewide law enforcement and public safety work across Illinois. Minimum vehicle specifications are set out in Section 1 of the contract. Bids must be submitted electronically through BidBuy, with line-item pricing entered in the BidBuy Quote Items Tab. Required submissions include a Vendor Disclosure or IPG Active Registered Vendor Disclosure, an Offer to the State of Illinois, and Business Enterprise Program or Veterans Small Business Program utilization plans as applicable. Bidders must be authorized to transact business in Illinois before contract execution. Exceptions to the Standard Terms and Conditions must be submitted as a redline, and the State may accept or reject them.

Award goes to the lowest-priced responsive and responsible bidder. No bid bond or performance bond is required. The resulting contract may be partially or wholly federally funded, with the percentage and dollar amount disclosed at award. A $15 fee applies to any awarded contract of $1,000 or more and is deducted from the first check issued under the contract. Bids become public record under the Illinois Freedom of Information Act unless a statutory exemption applies. The opportunity was posted October 30, 2026.
