SBE: Change Order - Lanter Distributing - Sp

The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) seeks to increase the not-to-exceed amount of their existing contract with Lanter Distributing by $237,420.73. The original contract, BBREFNO. 24-586SBE-FINAN-B-43667, is for the receiving, warehousing, and delivery services of dry, cooler, and frozen USDA foods for public and private schools, summer food service programs, and disaster-relief organizations throughout the State of Illinois. The change order is necessary due to underestimated forecasted quantities and costs at the time of the original solicitation, and the change is considered germane to the original contract as defined by the Procurement Code and the CPO-GS' Administrative Rules. The change order notice is being posted on the Bulletin/BidBuy for 14 days as required for change orders that increase the cost of a contract by more than $25,000.

This contract opportunity does not appear to have any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor is Lanter Distributing, and the total not-to-exceed amount for the modified contract, including the $237,420.73 increase, is not provided in the information given. However, the original contract value is not specified, so the total modified contract value cannot be determined from the information provided.
