This contract is an emergency‑extension purchase for de‑icing chemicals (de‑icer) needed across IDOT Districts 2‑7 during the winter season. The original 90‑day emergency contract (valued at roughly $1.18 M) expired on 28 Feb 2026; the agency sought a three‑month extension (Mar 1 – May 31 2026) worth about $90 K to maintain road safety while a competitive term contract is prepared. The sole vendor, SNI Solutions, will continue supplying the de‑icer under the same scope, with the extension approved by the agency’s APO, SPO, and CPO. The extension is authorized under Illinois Procurement Code § 20‑30(a) and will be followed by a competitive solicitation expected to conclude by the end of 2026.
• Scope: supply of de‑icing chemicals for state highways, bridges, and related infrastructure.
• Value: $90,000 for the extension (total potential obligation $1,274,125).
• Procurement: emergency, sole‑source extension of an existing contract; no small‑business set‑aside.
