SP DHS Individual PPE Kits

The state of Illinois, through the Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS), is procuring 8,000 "back to work" bags containing personal protective equipment for distribution to employees. Each bag will include a 2 oz. bottle of antimicrobial hand sanitizer, a 3-ply adult-sized disposable mask, a packet of disinfecting wipes, an antimicrobial ballpoint pen, and an informational note. The bags must be fully assembled and delivered to the IDHS Des Plaines Warehouse by June 24, 2020. Vendors are asked to provide pricing per unit as well as any quantity-based discounts for orders between 8,000 and 100,000 units. Vendors may also provide additional pricing for personalization of the bags or labels. The contract will be awarded to the vendor with the lowest total price per unit, and all quoted prices must be valid for 90 days with no price increases accepted. IDHS reserves the right to reject any or all offers and to award by item, part, or portion of an item, and bidders may be required to submit evidence of their qualifications.

The RFQ does not mention any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond. The incumbent vendor or current contractor is not specified, and the RFQ does not provide information on any existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The RFQ does not include a listed budget range, but the total value of the contract will depend on the unit pricing and quantity of bags ordered.
