The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is seeking food truck vendors to provide food options for approximately 300 employees at the Harry Hanley Building located at 2300 S. Dirksen Parkway in Springfield, Illinois. This is a general notice and request for information to establish a rotating monthly vendor calendar rather than a formal solicitation. Participation is free, and vendors are selected on a first-come, first-served basis. To be considered, vendors must be entirely self-sufficient, such as by using their own generators, and must submit their application by September 17, 2026, at 1:00 P.M. Central Time. Applicants are required to provide a completed cover page, vendor contact information, a business website link, and a menu of available items. Critical compliance documentation includes a City of Springfield Mobile Food Vendor Permit, a Sangamon County Department of Public Health Food Service Permit, and proof of insurance. Insurance requirements include General Commercial Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 annual aggregate, Auto Liability of $1,000,000 per occurrence, and legally required Worker's Compensation. Vendors must also adhere to all state and IDOT policies, including strict prohibitions on alcohol, illegal substances, and firearms on state premises.
