PerkinElmer Maintenance and Repair Small Purchase with Sole Source Conditions

This is a small purchase contract opportunity with sole source conditions for the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) to procure preventive maintenance and repair services for 8 PerkinElmer laboratory instruments. The contract is for a small purchase, indicating a limited value, and the sole source conditions mean there is only one approved vendor that can provide these specialized services. The key deliverables include all necessary preventive maintenance and any required repairs for the PerkinElmer equipment used by IDPH. Qualified vendors must be authorized PerkinElmer service providers and have the necessary expertise and equipment to maintain and repair this specialized laboratory instrumentation. Responses are due by September 25, 2024, providing a very short turnaround time for this procurement.

As this is a sole source contract, there are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the type of organization that can respond. The incumbent vendor is likely PerkinElmer, as the equipment and maintenance services are specific to their products. The contract value is not provided, but given the small purchase nature, it is likely a lower-dollar value contract. The existing PerkinElmer instrumentation and services must be maintained and integrated into IDPH's laboratory operations.
