Vendors must demonstrate the necessary qualifications and experience to operate and maintain the EDI system. The procurement has a short turnaround, with responses due by June 27, 2023.

Additionally, the State has not provided information on any incumbent vendors or budgetary ranges for the contract. Vendors interested in this opportunity will need to closely review the attached Standard Illinois Certifications and Standard Terms and Conditions documents to ensure compliance with all state requirements.
