Rebid Food/Convenience

The Chester Mental Health Center, an agency within the state of Illinois, has issued a Request for Quote (RFQ) for various food and convenience items. The RFQ includes four items: egg noodles, individual frozen pizzas, oven-ready steak fries, and instant mashed potatoes, with requested quantities ranging from 80 pounds to 550 individual units. Vendors must submit their quotes by June 13, 2018, at 1:00 p.m. The agency reserves the right to reject all offers, award by item or group, and require the winning vendor to partially ship orders in case of delays. Pricing terms stipulate that quoted prices must be valid for 90 days, include shipping and handling, and that no price increases will be accepted, with the agency receiving the lowest price in the event of a decrease.

The RFQ does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor or current contractor is not specified, and there is no information provided about any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not include any listed award values or budget ranges.
