PB JPMC for K-12 PPE with Factory Motor Parts

The state of Illinois, through the Chief Procurement Office for General Services, has awarded a piggyback contract to Factory Motor Parts for the provision of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and other cooperative contract offerings for K-12 institutions and qualified not-for-profit agencies. This is not a new bid opportunity, but rather a contract that can be utilized by governmental units and eligible organizations as defined in the piggyback agreement. The contract term is through December 2020, with no renewal options specified. The contract award amount is $0, as this is a cooperative purchasing arrangement that allows participating entities to leverage the pre-negotiated pricing and terms.

The procurement process utilized an Invitation for Bid, with the lowest priced responsive and responsible bidder selected. No additional details are provided regarding evaluation criteria, set-asides, or incumbent contractors. The notice indicates a waiver was attached to the bid, but no further information is given. The contract does not specify any funding sources or budget ranges, as it is intended to provide a flexible purchasing vehicle for eligible organizations to access the contracted PPE and other offerings.
