Rebid - Continental Aircraft Engine Overhaul and Maintenance Services

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is seeking vendors authorized to perform repairs, maintenance, and overhauls for Continental Motor Inc. aircraft engines. Specifically, IDOT operates three aircraft with Continental engines, including two IO-520 engines and one O-470 engine, and requires these services on an ongoing basis. Qualified vendors must possess and maintain a current Federal Aviation Administration Certified Repair Station Certificate or Manufacturer Maintenance and Repair Certificate. IDOT intends to award a Primary and Secondary Vendor contract based on the lowest bid(s) received. The contract term is upon execution through 3/31/2028, with an option to renew for an additional four-year term. Vendors must provide hourly labor rates for the initial and renewal terms, as well as estimated materials costs, and may offer a discount off the Manufacturer's List Price for parts.

This procurement does not contain any small business, minority, women, or veteran-owned business set-aside goals. There is no incumbent vendor, and the contract will be funded through state funds. The total award value is not specified, but based on the scope of services and contract term, it is likely a multi-year contract of significant value to support the state's aircraft engine maintenance needs.
