Repair, Maintenance, Certification Weightronix Scale Equipment

The State of Illinois, through the Illinois Department of Transportation (Agency), is seeking vendors to provide repair, maintenance, and certification services for Avery Weightronix, Rice Lake equipment, and electronic indication scales located at weigh stations around the state. The Agency requires the selected vendor to service and certify these scales, as well as SI Lodec semi-portable axle load scales, PAT wheel load weigher scales, and WALZ indicators, to meet federal certification requirements. The resulting contract will have an initial term of eight years, with the possibility of renewal terms, but the total term cannot exceed ten years. The Invitation for Bid (IFB) outlines pricing requirements, including mileage charges and overtime limitations, and the Agency will award the contract to the responsive and responsible bidder with the lowest price.

The IFB does not contain any small business, minority/women/veteran-owned business, or other set-aside requirements. The funding for this contract may come from federal sources, in which case the percentage of federal funding will be disclosed upon intent to award. Vendors must submit detailed disclosures, including information on their business, financial status, conflicts of interest, political contributions, and certifications required to do business with the State of Illinois. Failure to provide the required disclosures and certifications may result in the vendor's bid or offer being deemed non-responsive.
