Small Purchase - Tilt-Bed Trailer

This state and local contract opportunity is for the procurement of a tilt-bed trailer and accessories for the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) located in St. Clair County, Illinois. The estimated dollar amount for this purchase is $110,000. The tilt-bed trailer will be used to haul spraying equipment. This is a small purchase opportunity, meaning it is a simplified acquisition process. The State of Illinois has provided the standard terms and conditions that will apply to this contract, covering requirements such as payment terms, compliance with laws, termination rights, and invoicing. Vendors must submit the state's standard certification form along with their response, attesting to compliance with various state-specific requirements.

The State of Illinois has issued a waiver from the Small Business Set-Aside Program for this procurement, as the product is only available from a large business sole source vendor, and the prices offered by qualified small businesses were substantially higher than the estimated amount. As such, this opportunity is open to all qualified vendors, not just small businesses. No incumbent vendor information or budget range is provided in the materials. The response to this opportunity is due by August 20, 2021.
