PerkinElmer SPwSS Maintenance and Repair

The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is soliciting a two-year preventive maintenance and repair contract with PerkinElmer for equipment servicing under sole source procurement conditions. This small purchase contract encompasses ongoing maintenance, repair, and support services for PerkinElmer equipment, with deliverables including scheduled preventive maintenance visits, emergency repair services, parts replacement, and technical support to ensure equipment operability and minimize downtime. The procurement requires the vendor to comply with the Illinois Prompt Payment Act, maintain comprehensive general commercial liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate, and provide a twelve-month warranty on all supplies and services. Vendors must obtain prior written approval before engaging any subcontractors and are required to maintain detailed records for a minimum of three years (or five years if federal funds are utilized). The contract is contingent upon appropriation of funds by the Illinois General Assembly, and the State reserves the right to terminate the agreement for convenience with thirty days' notice or for cause with immediate effect. The posted date for this opportunity is January 16, 2026, with a due date of January 21, 2026.

This procurement is designated as a sole source contract, restricting responses to PerkinElmer as the sole qualified vendor based on proprietary technology and specialized equipment requirements. The contract imposes a $15 Minority Contractor Initiative fee for contracts exceeding $1,000 and subjects the procurement to prevailing wage requirements for designated service categories. Vendors must possess an active Illinois Procurement Gateway (IPG) registration and complete the required IPG Active Registered Vendor Disclosure form, certifying they are not barred from state contracting and disclosing any registered lobbyists or agents if the contract value exceeds $100,000. All vendors must also certify that apparel procurement does not involve forced labor exploitation. While specific contract values are not detailed in the available documentation, the two-year term and comprehensive maintenance scope suggest a substantial service agreement, though the exact budget allocation and award value have not been disclosed in the posted materials.
