The Illinois Department of Corrections has established a one-year small purchase contract, solicitation number 26-426DOC-MUDDY-B-50195, for the inspection, service, and preventative maintenance of the Siemens Power 600 APOGEE Digital Controlled Building Control Systems at the Big Muddy River Correctional Center in Ina, Illinois. Due to the proprietary nature of the system, the contract is awarded under sole source conditions and prohibits the subcontracting of Siemens labor. The scope of work requires the vendor to provide a Siemens Specialist, Mechanic, and software/firmware specialist for six scheduled visits per year, four of which must include a mechanic. Key responsibilities include performing system status reviews, maintaining electronic and pneumatic equipment such as control valves and VAV boxes, resolving programming issues, and maintaining software backups. All work must be performed in the presence of the Chief Engineer or a designee, and all parts and labor are guaranteed for one year. The contract is contingent upon the availability of funds and requires compliance with the State Prompt Payment Act and the Illinois Prevailing Wage Act. Vendors must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including one million dollars for general commercial liability and auto liability, and two million dollars for annual aggregate liability. Strict security protocols are in place for site access via the Sally Port gate, and vendors must provide Material Safety Data sheets for any toxic substances used. The agreement also mandates adherence to standard Illinois certifications regarding legal and ethical compliance, including tax and environmental regulations. All deliverables are considered work for hire, granting the State of Illinois sole and exclusive ownership of the resulting work product.
