SM PUR Shredder and Baler Repair & Maintenance

Sangamon County in Illinois is procuring repair and maintenance services for industrial waste processing equipment through a flat-rate contract structure. The services cover an Allegheny industrial rotary shredder and Maren baler located at 5000 Industrial Avenue in Springfield, Illinois, with deliverables including typical replacement wear parts, remote and direct support, and break-fix services. Qualified technicians must demonstrate necessary experience, training, and proof of industry certifications specific to these equipment types. The solicitation was posted on January 30, 2026, with a proposal due date of February 9, 2026. While the document does not specify evaluation criteria, site visit opportunities, or bidders' meetings, vendors should expect standard state evaluation methodology focusing on qualifications, pricing, and service capability. The contract will operate under Illinois Prompt Payment Act provisions, and vendors awarded contracts of $1,000 or more must pay a $15 fee supporting the Minority Contractor Initiative.

The contract does not indicate specific set-asides for disadvantaged or minority-owned enterprises, though the Minority Contractor Initiative fee suggests such programs exist within the state procurement framework. Vendors must comply with 34 distinct certification requirements covering legal entity status, financial obligations, criminal history, environmental compliance, labor practices, and ethics standards, with failure to certify resulting in potential contract voidance, debarment, or civil and criminal penalties. Required insurance includes general commercial liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate, auto liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, and workers' compensation coverage as required by law. No incumbent vendor or budget range is specified in the available documentation. The State retains sole ownership of all work product, reserves the right to terminate for convenience with 30 days' notice, and the contract is contingent upon fund appropriation.
