Coverage area of this aircraft includes major metropolitan areas of Springfield, Peoria, Decatur, Champaign/Urbana, Bloomington/Normal and Quincy. ISP's initial intent was to utilize the Agency's current repair and maintenance contract; however, a determination was made that the work required is not within the scope of the repair/maintenance contract. ISP has an immediate need to have this aircraft engine overhauled/replaced so that it can return to operation. Any future aircraft engine overhaul needs of ISP will be competitively bid in advance of any anticipated need.

The Illinois State Police (ISP) is mandated to approve or deny Firearm Owner’s Identification (FOID) applications and Firearm Concealed Cary License (FCCL) applications within mandated timeframes. In March 2015, the ISP transitioned the old FOID system into the same technology system as the Concealed Carry License system including the internal printing of cards/licenses, denial/revocation letters, rejection letters and appeal letters. It was recently discovered that the number of FOID card applications, names and address  changes and letters generated were underestimated for the remainder of the fiscal year. After a previous   attempt to acquire supplies through a competitive bid process, it was determined that IdentiSys is the exclusive authorized vendor for Datacard printer supplies within the region covering Illinois. IdentiSys has indicated that Datacard certified supplies must be used to maintain the printers warranty and service agreement. The ISP, Firearms Services Bureau is in the process of pursuing a sole source contract with IdentiSys to meet the  ongoing needs for these printing supplies. However, there is not sufficient time to finalize the sole source procurement process before current stock is depleted. An emergency purchase is necessary to process applications within the mandated timeframes. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 06/18/2015 through 09/15/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $65,000.00.

There is no clear indication of where the source of the leak is. As the leak  continues, as it has intermittently with the rains we have in District 4, the erosion worsens and the chance of a catastrophic failure increases.

The ash silo at the Elgin Mental Health Center has deteriorated to the point it is on the verge of collapsing.    The silo is attached to the existing power plant and the plant is in operation constantly. The main gas line that fuels the boilers in the power plant is next to the silo. If the silo fails and collapses on the gas line, there is the possibility of a rupture and explosion. This would endanger life and State property as well as the operations of the Elgin Mental Health Center. It is imperative to tear down and demolish the ash silo before it collapses causing damage to the power plant and gas line and potentially harming staff. Vendor #1 will provide services to design and observe the demolishing of the silo. Vendor #1 was chose because they are familiar with the site and their availability to respond immediately to this request for emergency services. This project began with a Directors' Selection of an Architect/Engineer ("A/E") as allowed under the Qualifications-Based Selection Act. Considering the time frames needed for negotiation and execution of an A/E contract, design and standard bidding procedures, demolishing the silo under the existing processes would likely not begin for several months. For this reason, an emergency procurement is necessary as there exists a threat to public health and public safety and immediate expenditure is necessary to protect State property against further loss or damage. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 06/01/2015 through 08/29/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $10,000.00.

On June 9, 2015, a letter was received in the same filing quarter, reporting the Actual Total Cost expended for dates 04/24/2015 through 06/30/2015 is $56,363.00.

 

On Monday, April 13, at 10:34 a.m. we were informed by Education Testing Services (ETS) that payment for the AP exams needed to be made payable to College Entrance Examination Board, DBA College Board. We were advised by ETS that this change had just incurred. ETS stated there has been a change in some processes regarding College Board products and Services and the way that our customers will need to remit payment and receive information. Treasury and Tax have an initiative to separate all of the ETS financials from College Board financials for compliance. To do so, effective immediately we will be utilizing College Board owned bank accounts for the processing of payments for College Board owned products and services via paper check, ACH/Domestic Wires, and International Wires. We will also be providing customers with the College Board's Tax Identification number if they are requesting tax information for a College Board owned product or service. The AP Examinations are administered each year in May and represent the culmination of college-level work   in a given discipline in a secondary school setting. Rigorously developed by committees of college and AP  high school faculty, the AP Exams test students' ability to perform at a college level. The involvement of college faculty at all levels of exam development and scoring ensures that the AP Exams truly reflect college- level achievement. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 04/24/2015 through 06/30/2015  with an Original Estimated Cost of $63,500.00.

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, Study Abroad Office, is providing a summer 2015 Study Abroad program in New Zealand, leaving May 19, 2015 and ending in late June 2015. The Study Abroad Office (SAO) engaged American Universities International Programs, Ltd., based in New Zealand to assist in the arrangements for the participants. The SAO Business Office has experienced a changeover in staff in the last 6 months and the staff was not aware of the need to process a sole source prior to being able to contract with the vendor. The emergency purchase was needed to ensure payment to the vendor was made by April 30, 2015 to prevent the Summer 2015 New Zealand study abroad program from being cancelled. Cancellation of the study abroad program would result in a substantial loss of current and possible future University revenues due to the serious disruption of critical educational services that may damage the University's ability to   provide the student's educational study abroad experience in the future. If the Summer 2015 New Zealand study abroad program was cancelled the University would lose approximately $61,790 in student fees. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 04/27/2015 through 06/30/2015 with an Actual Cost of

$62,515.00.

The University awarded a contract with Agilent Technologies for a 2012 manufactured (demo) SureScan Microarray scanner. This emergency/quick purchase was required due to a situation in which this SureScan Microarray scanner was available at a deep discounted price for a limited time on a first come basis. Sound business judgment mandated an immediate/quick purchase to take advantage of the availability and price. The first come offer is $102,625.89 that represents a discount of 49% as the original manufacturer price is

$187,903.00. Therefore, this deep discount and the limited offer qualifies this emergency as a quick purchase. The UIC Molecular Pathology will utilize this scanner to perform array comparative genomic hybridization procedure in the newly established laboratory of Personalized Medicine in the department of Pathology. This instrument will develop diagnostic assays that are directly translatable into the clinical aspects of cancer patients and used to improve patient care. This purchase includes a three year maintenance and support agreements at a discounted price of 27%. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 05/27/2015 through 06/09/2015 with an Actual Cost of $102,625.89.

UIC's cooling tower repair is necessary because the Baltimore Aircoil Company (BAC) tower fill is deteriorated from UV exposure. The repair is urgent now because spring inspection revealed it will not endure a few more years as previously expected. This tower fill is not only falling apart but plugging up the chillers that produce chilled water for the west campus. Without this repair the ability of the west chiller plant to maintain cooling to the campus will be greatly reduced. That reduced cooling ability would impact required cooling needs at the hospital and other west campus facilities. The repair services include removal of all existing fill media and supports from the cooling tower cells and install an OEM-BA Cross II Wet Deck with integral drift eliminators and supports. This vendor is familiar with the UIC's cooling towers, UIC utility protocols and is the exclusive representative for BAC equipment and replacement parts in Northern Illinois.

An emergency purchase is necessary to purchase customized hearing aid devices prescribed for hearing impaired patients seen in the Department of Otolaryngology of the University of Illinois Hospital (UIHHSS). This emergency need relates to a determination made that the sole bidder responding the University Solicitation #MEC179 for hearing aids did not qualify as a bidder authorized to do business in Illinois prior to submitting their bid. This emergency contract term will bridge the gap until the new solicitation is issued, evaluated and awarded. The selection of this vendor is based on the fact that Elite Hearing Inc. was the only responsive bidder and they offer exceptional designed fitted hearing aids based upon patient specifications.

Any cessation of the supply of hearing aids would prevent hearing impaired Otolaryngology patients from receiving prescribed, customized hearing aids. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 06/18/2015 through 09/15/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $60,000.00.

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign engaged in an emergency purchase of electronic library content for the members of the Consortium of Academic Research Libraries in Illinois (CARLI). CARLI members include the State of IL Public Higher Education Schools (IPHEC), community colleges and private higher education institutions. Previous contracts with EBSCO for this library content were processed as an exempt purchase under 500 ILCS 1/1-13(b)(5). Sections 1-13 exemptions expired January 1, 2015 due to an error in extension language and were expected to be reinstated to allow for contract execution with a start date of July 1, 2015. The students and faculty's critical need for access to library content made it necessary to engage in a 90 day emergency purchase of the library content to prevent a critical disruption in academic services and loss of State Revenues for the members of CARLI. Loss of State revenues would very likely occur as students would not be able to perform all coursework and drop the course(s) and/or request refunds from the institutions. A new solicitation will be performed und 500 ILCS 30/20 in the absence of the exemptions. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 07/01/2015 through 09/28/2015 with an Actual Cost of $425,000.00.

Original Filing - 09/08/2015: FY15, Qtr 1, Item# 7:

Contract will provide necessary services to relocate a sewer force main from a building at North Point  Marina. A break in the existing line revealed that the sewer pipe is actually located within the Lake County Forest Preserve District's Spring Bluff Nature Preserve and sewage was leaking into the wetland area. To temporarily remediate the leakage, the lift station pump has been shut off to eliminate further discharge into the wetland area. As a result, there are no functioning toilet facilities in adjacent buildings. This project will eliminate the future threat of sewage discharge into the wetland and restore sanitary service to the buildings. Eliminating these hazardous conditions, will protect the wetland against further damage and eliminate the public health threat. The Vendor selected currently holds the maintenance and repair contract for the Marina; however, this emergency repair exceeds the current contract ceiling. The vendor has been deemed responsive and responsible and will be applying the maintenance and repair contract billing rates.

This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 09/02/2014 through 11/15/2014 with an original estimated cost of $53,292.00.

The Department of Natural Resources requires emergency services at the World Shooting and Recreational Complex in Sparta, IL. When the World Shooting and Recreational Complex was built in 2004, the original road plans did not call for replacing a 96” corrugated metal pipe culvert (CMP) under Cardinal Road, located just east of the Main Event Center. Due to the culvert being installed in 1981 and the acetic soils associated with coal mining, the culvert has failed. As a result of the culvert failure a large sink hole has formed at the edge of Cardinal Road, causing a safety hazard for the public and is threatening infrastructure at the site.

Infrastructure includes the Complex electrical main, water main, sewer, fiber optics lines which all are threatened. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 03/25/2015 through 06/15/2015 with an Estimated Cost of $233,842.00.

The Illinois Department of Corrections is requesting a 90-day emergency to extend the terms and conditions of the current contract for the Parole Division Communications and Control Center (PCCC) under contract # 0910038 with the current vendor, Protocol Services Acquisition Corps. IDOC is competitively bidding a new contract through the RFP Process. IDOC is in the process of completing all necessary steps of the RFP  process and expects to post the new solicitation in early September, 2014. IDOC will then begin the evaluation of the bids to work towards an award of the contract. Extending the PCCC contract for 90 days allows for the listed tasks to be accomplished. This contract will be terminated when the new contract is in place. If this request is denied, IDOC will experience a disruption in service and will not be able to continue to operate the Parole and sex offender supervision programs as mandated by Illinois Statute. Department operations related to monitoring of releases would be seriously compromised.

The Vandalia Correction Center has a dedicated boiler room that feeds hot water throughout the Work Camp dormitories as well as the Administration Building. The hot water is used for heating all of these areas, showering, cleaning and in dietary. A leak has been detected in the line feeding the B North dormitory. First concern is that heat could be lost to B North and B South dormitory. This could create a serious safety concern for the 200 inmates housed in the dormitories. Secondly, approximately 30 gallons of chemically treated,  heated water is being wasted per day. The water is purchased from the City of Vandalia and the chemicals  from a contractual vendor. The leak was detected by our maintenance staff who noticed an unusual increase in the usage of water and treatment chemicals. The Facility’s maintenance staff is able to provide the electrical excavating and painting work to prepare the site but requires an outside vendor to replace/repair and insulate the leaking pipe. Once these repairs are complete there will be no further expenditures associated with Emergency Purchase. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 11/12/2014 through 02/09/2015 with an original estimated cost of $13,230.00.

Original Filing - 03/10/2016: FY15, Qtr 3, Item# 8:

Pontiac Correctional Center is a facility that houses some 1500 maximum security and 500 medium security offenders. The facility needs to replace the water heaters and softeners at the MSU in dorms C, F, G and the MSU Dietary along with the softeners at the Powerhouse. Currently the existing water heaters have failed in  the MSU Dietary and two of the dorms. The scope of this project would only include purchasing the parts as  our staff will do the installation in house. The parts include 4 water heaters, water softeners along with miscellaneous materials needed for the install. We have checked on the availability of these units, however, due to the size of each, they are not something that is carried by any small business vendors. We have checked with all of the vendors on the NIPG and none of them could supply what we need. So the vendors with the best   prices turned out to be large vendors. The availability of these items has been an issue as no one seems to keep these parts on had so the lead time to get them is 6-8 weeks. We need to begin the process of getting these ordered immediately to avoid any long term loss of heated water at the Medium Security Unit. Due to the   urgent nature of the project and necessary lead time to get the parts ordered, we would like to declare this an emergency. Vendors are: Richard Tarvin, Inc. (Culligan) two large water softeners; WW Grainger, four  smaller water softeners; SomesNick, four water heaters; Target Supply, Miscellaneous plumbing parts; and, Columbia Pipe, miscellaneous plumbing parts. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 03/04/2015 through 06/02/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $98,000.00.

This contract is needed to provide survey, consultation and analysis of life safety issues noted in the recent Federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) survey.

This vendor will conduct a fire certification survey to ensure the facility meets life safety codes. The Vendor will also perform an inventory of all wall penetrations that require immediate corrections and do a comprehensive analysis to determine if our back up electrical generator  system is adequate to meet code and sufficient in responding to a facility emergency. This needs to be completed prior to CMS deadline of December 18, 2014 or Elgin Mental health Center may face decertification. The original estimated cost is $150,000.00.

On March 26, 2015, a letter was received in the same filing quarter, reporting the Actual Total Cost expended for dates 01/29/2015 through 04/29/2015 is $81,797.00.

 

Original Filing 02/06/2015: FY15, Qtr 3, Item# 9:

The Chester Mental Health Center, a forensic facility, is experiencing a failure with the communication  function of the security system. The current security system was installed over 20 years ago with the last update occurring in 2000 for Y2K reasons. Since then, the system has been running continuously without stoppage, until late December, 2014. The Westinghouse security system is no longer supported by any vendor. When   parts failed, the Facility would buy new and refurbished parts to keep the system running. At the end of December, the existing Westinghouse Security system was no longer communicating with the main computer.

The problem could not be repaired. The failure is that the control center cannot operate any locks from their computer; reports cannot be ran from the system; new access badges cannot be created in the system, so any new employees will have limited access within the facility, and access cannot be changed to any existing  badges that are already created. One of the biggest problems is giving access cards to the employees. The Facility is running out of cards to give to employees since we cannot change access. This is a problem because staff may need to respond to security and medical type situations and cannot be given the necessary access.

DHS has put in a capital request that the system be replaced 5 years ago. Since that time, DHS has used Permanent Improvement Funds to repair and replace parts of the security system as needed. This has resulted in over half of the system being replaced over the last four years for approximately $100,000.00. Now another failure has forced DHS to replace the rest of the system in order for it to function properly. Currently the Facility is utilizing keys and disabling the magnetic locks and access control system, which presents a life safety code issue. Also, immediate evacuation of the Facility will be hindered by the use of manual locks. DHS is requesting and emergency to buy the necessary parts to repair the functionality of the security system.

Chester MHC personnel will do the installations of the equipment and the vendor will program the system once completed. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 01/29/2015 through 04/29/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $100,000.00.

This is an emergency purchase and installation of a backup heat exchanger bundle at the Chicago Read Mental Health Center. Last week, the primary HVAC system went down and the backup system failed to work. The primary system came back up and the disruption was minimal. The heat exchanger backup system has need frequent repairs in the past but it has now been determined that further repairs may not prevent another failure. If backup heat exchanger fails, the Facility will be with both heat and hot water. All patients and staff would then have to be evacuated to another location. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 03/12/2015 through 06/10/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $120,000.00.

The systems operating in this environment are critical to the process of paying employees, paying vendors and providing accountability and management of the Department's Fiscal resources. These systems were maintained by a single individual. Early in May, this individual announced his retirement without advanced notice and left on that day. This left the systems without even minimal support. ISP does not have trained resources in this technology. The original estimated cost is $109,200.00.

Original Filing - 08/12/2014: FY15, Qtr 1, Item# 14:

A harsh winter in 2013-2014 caused salt inventories for users and vendors of salt to be low in many areas.  CMS bid salt for IDOT and local units of government. Many locations did not receive bids. The prices also increased significantly from last year. The price increase and lack of bids were attributed to a limited supply of salt. This created a market where a relatively large number of local units of government and private sector entities are competing for a limited quantity of salt available for this winter. IDOT decided to use an   emergency purchase to acquire 51,880 tons in locations that did not receive bids when CMS bid salt. On July 30, IDOT sent a solicitation to all known salt vendors for locations where bids were not received. The bids   were due on August 5. Four vendors responded. Award was made to the low bid vendor for each location. In all cases, that was Compass Minerals. This salt is required to ensure IDOT has an adequate supply to maintain safe roads during the upcoming winter. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 08/06/2014 through 11/04/2014 with an original estimated cost of $5,400,000.00.

The District was notified by Bureau of Bridges & Structures (BBS) on November 13, 2014, that the major bridge carrying US 67/IL 100 over the Illinois River at Beardstown appears to have unstable conditions at the rocker bearings. The bearings appear to be frozen and as a result of expansion and contraction, the angles supporting the verticals have cracked directly above the bearings. Due to this condition, the BBS required the District to post the bridge at a 15 ton limit until permanent repairs can be made. The District immediately contacted the Central Bureau of Operations and requested to proceed with an emergency contract and obtain emergency funding for necessary repairs to stabilize the bridge and make it safe for the traveling public and allowing legal loads. A press release was sent out the same day notifying the public of the proposed load restriction. Load Postings and truck detours were signed the following Monday. Since then IDOT has received numerous complaints on the social and economic impacts of the load posting. Our Day Labor forces are currently taking initial actions to stabilize the structure until this emergency contract can be initiated and get eight new bearings fabricated and installed as soon as possible. Utilizing the emergency procurement process will ensure the protection of life, health, and safety of the traveling public and prevent the future loss of state property. The original estimated cost is $1,000,000.00.

This Affidavit covers two Vendors. 1) Hellmuth Obata & Kassabaum@ $625,000 2) Walsh Construction Co. @

$6,215,000. They have been selected to do the expansion of the Rushville TDF facility. The population has quickly been rising since Jan 2010 with an increase from 379 residents to currently 501 residents. The maximum clinical number of residents recommended to be 482. the Max capacity is 510. Expansion at the facility is more cost effective than the alternative of building or housing residents at another location. If additional capacity is not added, the IDHS will be in violation of the state law requiring DHS to house and provide treatment to persons deemed by the courts. The TDF has additional land that could be utilized for the expansion of another housing unit and would allow continued use of existing services at the facility without disruption to the treatment of residents. TDF is requesting an expansion of the current facility, which includes 50 units and related infrastructure by July 31, 2013.

HOK has been selected to design and oversee construction and Walsh Construction has been recommended to order and construct the units.

 

This has been moved to CDB.

The existing ISTHA Contract No. 09-0065 expires on September 30, 2014, with no remaining renewal options. This emergency procurement is being requested to extend the current contract until the Request for Proposal ("RFP") process for a new contract is completed. The Tollway's current contract for collection and collection litigation services is with two collection agencies: Harris & Harris, Ltd. And NCO Financial Systems, Inc. If the existing contract were to lapse, collections would cease against approximately 1.2 billion violation  accounts placed between each of the two collection agencies. This results in reduced recovery back to the Tollway. The two collection agencies have recovered approximately $15 million per year from violators over the last three years. The Tollway is requesting a 90-day extension to allow sufficient time to complete the bid and contract negotiation process on the new RFP, as well as process implementation and development, to ensure the continued collection services on bad debt accounts. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 10/01/2014 through 12/29/2014 with an original estimated cost of $500,000.00.

The Actual Total Cost of FY14, Qtr 1, Item# 22 is $41,693.48.

 

Original Filing 07/07/2015: FY15, Qtr 1, Item# 22:

The University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign executed an emergency contract with a Spanish law firm in order to continue receiving critical legal advice regarding the transfer of the School of Architecture's study abroad program from France to Spain. For the past 40 years, the study abroad program has operated in Versailles, France but due to increasing housing expenses and other factors, the School of Architecture made the decision to relocate the program to Barcelona beginning in the fall term of 2014. After seeking three proposals, the University engaged the Spanish law firm of Cuatrecasas Goncalves Pereira under a small purchase contract for $19,999 effective 01/16/2014 through 01/15/2015 to provide specific legal advice regarding the proposed move. Because of the unexpected complexity of employment, tax and financial matters surrounding the establishment of a legal presence in Spain, the small purchase limitation has proved insufficient to cover the unexpected legal expenses. This longstanding study abroad program is integrated into the core curricula of the School of Architecture’s degree programs and, there is considered a critical University service under Section 20-30(a) of the Code. The operation in France is now shut down. University employees are in the process of relocating to Spain and obtaining work permits. More than 30 students, all degree-seeking students within the School of Architecture on the University’s Urbana-Champaign campus, are enrolled in the Spain study abroad program for the fall 2014 term. The students will be arriving in August for classes that begin the first week of September and will expect to have places to live and classes to attend.

Failure of the program to open in Spain as scheduled will result in the University’s loss of approximately

$952,881, which includes refunds of collected program fees and tuition. Failure to open as scheduled will disrupt a critical University service by interfering with the academic progress of these architecture students and could jeopardize their safety in they arrive in Spain without secure housing. Therefore, this contract expenditure is necessary to prevent or minimize serious disruption in a critical University service that affects safety and the collection of substantial University revenues in accordance with the standards set forth in Section 20-30(a) of the Code. It is not reasonable or feasible to competitively bid these legal services at this stage of the project due to the risk of failure to implement the program for the fall 2014 semester. It is crucial that we have a contract for the full 90 days permitted by Section 20-30(a) to ensure the program opens in time as well as to ensure the University’s ability to promptly address and respond to any legal issues that might arise during the initial operations. Consequently, the University also intends to pursue a sole source contract with Cuatrecasas Goncalves Pereira for a period following expiration of the emergency contract. This Emergency Purchase has an original estimated cost of $50,000.00.

A series of Intercollegiate Athletic gymnastic meets are scheduled with the first occurring Friday, January, 9, 2015. The athletic event needed to be relocated, and equipment rented, due to the unavailability of the Physical Education Building while it is undergoing indoor turf field renovation. Consequently, an emergency purchase was deemed needed to prevent disruption of these intercollegiate event commitments. The gymnastic equipment rental and the event hosting were moved to the UIC Pavilion. Initially this purchase was to be requested as a Section 1-13(b) exemption as the expenditure events are exclusively funded by donor gifts. The vendor   selection was based upon previous relationship with Midwest Gym Supply. They are backed by more than 30 years of unsurpassed product and customer service. Midwest Gym Supply offers the most extensive line of gymnastics equipment, custom padding and installation east of the Mississippi. Their warehouses boast the largest stock of gymnastics equipment in the country. They provide the items we need for the Pavilion including CAD gym layout and design, competition and special event equipment leasing and expert installation. This Emergency Purchase has an expected start date of 01/09/2015 through 04/08/2015 with an Original Estimated Cost of $122,200.00.
