The procurement is for a one-year contract term from March 1, 2025, through February 28, 2026, with no specified renewal options. Bidders must submit their proposals to Samantha Guffey via email or through the BidBuy platform, with pricing requirements mandating a firm, fixed format that includes unit and total costs for each license type. The evaluation criteria will focus on selecting the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with the Secretary of State reserving the right to award the contract in whole or part. The solicitation requires specific submission guidelines, including comprehensive documentation and adherence to detailed specifications outlined in the RFQ document. The proposal due date is February 13, 2025, and all subsequent invoices must be submitted to the Secretary of State IT department located in Springfield, IL. The RFQ does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises or specific vendor categories. No incumbent vendor information is provided in the available documentation. The contract requires vendors to maintain specific insurance coverage, including $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 Annual Aggregate for General Commercial Liability, along with Auto Liability and Worker's Compensation Insurance. While a precise budget range is not specified, the procurement involves 15,000 total software licenses across three product categories, suggesting a potential significant contract value. The procurement appears focused on standardizing software tools for the Illinois Secretary of State's technology infrastructure, with a clear emphasis on acquiring comprehensive software licensing for Right Click Tools, Endpoints Insight, and Application Manager subscriptions. Potential respondents should carefully review the technical specifications and ensure they can meet the precise licensing and operational requirements outlined in the RFQ documentation.
