Reflective roll up sign and stand

The State of Illinois is soliciting proposals for the procurement of reflective roll-up signs and stands designated for emergency roadway use. This procurement is being conducted by the State of Illinois through its Chief Procurement Office for General Services contracts. The specific goods required include reflective signs and accompanying stands designed for deployment during emergency roadway situations, though the procurement documents do not specify quantities, exact specifications, dimensions, or performance standards for the equipment. Vendors must be capable of providing products that meet reflective safety standards suitable for emergency traffic management and control applications. The proposal submission deadline is May 12, 2026, with the opportunity having been posted on May 8, 2026, providing a four-day response window for interested vendors. The procurement documents do not indicate a scheduled bidders' conference, site visit, or question submission deadline, suggesting that vendors should submit proposals based on the information provided in the standard terms and conditions.

This procurement opportunity is restricted exclusively to vendors participating in the State of Illinois Small Business Set Aside Program, meaning only certified small business enterprises are eligible to submit proposals. Vendors selected to contract with the State of Illinois must maintain general commercial liability insurance of at least $1,000,000 per occurrence with a $2,000,000 aggregate, along with worker's compensation insurance as required by law. All contractors are subject to Illinois prevailing wage laws where applicable and must comply with the State Prompt Payment Act for payment processing. Vendors must retain all books and records for a minimum of three years from final payment or contract completion, or five years if federal funds are involved, as the State reserves audit rights. The procurement documents provided do not disclose the contract award value, budget range, or incumbent vendor information, indicating that these details may be available through direct inquiry to the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office or through supplemental procurement documentation.
