The SIU Carbondale campus has determined that an extension of the existing contract is in the campus best interest at this time due to the fact that no bids were received for the previous solicitation, 7353, and shortages of required equipment due to supply chain issues. For a successful bidding process to occur, it is important to have an accurate representation of campus populations that represent the future need of the organization to the marketplace. A new Request for Proposal will be forthcoming with revised specifications with the anticipation that the supply chain issues will be resolved and vendors will respond more favorably to this solicitation. In order to provide SIU Carbondale with an opportunity to issue a unified request for proposal that addresses these concerns, a 12-month contract extension with the current service provider is being established.
