Powerseller 26-27 Small Purchase Sole Source

The State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office is issuing a sole-source small purchase to PowerSeller Solutions LLC, with a response due August 6, 2026. This is a sole-source procurement — a decision-flipping constraint that eliminates competitive bidding and signals either a single-source justification or a pre-awarded vendor relationship.

PowerSeller Solutions LLC, represented by President Gregory Crosby, executed standard Illinois certifications on July 20, 2026, confirming compliance with 30 ILCS 500/50-90 V.26.2 and all 34 certification requirements governing state procurement. These certifications cover legal entity status, criminal history disclosure, environmental compliance, drug-free workplace standards, equal employment opportunity, political contribution restrictions, cybersecurity standards, and forced labor prohibitions. The vendor certifies responsibility for ensuring all subcontractors maintain equivalent compliance standards and acknowledges continuing obligation to report any changes affecting eligibility.

The procurement carries standard Illinois contract terms: a $15 fee requirement for minority contractor initiatives on contracts of $1,000 or more; prevailing wage compliance where applicable; minimum insurance of $1,000,000 general commercial liability per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate; and record retention for three years (or five years if federal funds are used). Work product is owned exclusively by the State as work-for-hire. The State retains the right to terminate for convenience with thirty days' notice, for cause immediately upon notice, or if appropriations are unavailable. Disputes are subject to exclusive venue in the Illinois Court of Claims, with the State retaining full sovereign immunity.

The attached documents do not specify product or service scope, quantities, contract value, contract term, or place of performance.
