JCC/PWC/GCWC - Plumbing Services - JAW

The contract is established to secure a qualified plumbing vendor capable of servicing the plumbing needs at three correctional facilities in Illinois: Jacksonville Correctional Center, Pittsfield Work Camp, and Greene County Work Camp. It encompasses both general and emergency plumbing repair and maintenance services, with response times set at eight hours for routine repairs and two hours for emergencies. The vendor is responsible for providing all labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary for the work, with materials invoiced at cost and subject to verification. The contract emphasizes high standards of quality, requiring work to be guaranteed for one year, with defective items replaced at no cost. Work must be authorized beforehand through work orders or purchase orders, and detailed documentation of all work performed is mandatory. The scope includes adherence to applicable federal and state specifications, with an emphasis on timely response, quality assurance, and compliance with safety and security protocols, including background checks for personnel. The contractual framework is governed by Illinois law and incorporates various Illinois statutes and administrative codes, notably relating to equal opportunity, public works, prevailing wages, and sovereign immunity. Payment terms follow the State Prompt Payment Act, with invoices due by July 31 for work performed through June 30 of each year, and include provisions for statutory offsets and certifications. The contract stipulates that all modifications must be in writing, and provisions that naturally survive termination—such as warranties and confidentiality—will do so. It also details security requirements, mandating background checks and compliance with building safety protocols, and specifies that the vendor must maintain appropriate licensure and insurance. The performance period begins upon the last signature, initially lasting three years with a maximum potential duration of ten years, and response times are strictly defined to ensure prompt service. No specific evaluation criteria, award methodology, or detailed pricing structures are included in the available documents, but the procurement is classified as a small purchase, with the actual pricing contained within an incorporated BidBuy purchase order.
