CHANGE ORDER NOTICE - JPMC Food and Grocery Items

This solicitation is a Change Order Notice that extends the existing Joint Purchase Master Contract (JPMC) for food and grocery items. The amendment does not introduce new goods or services; it solely prolongs the contract’s performance period from the original end date of 11/30/2026 to 02/28/2027, allowing the State of Illinois to continue sourcing staple grocery items under the same terms. No competitive bidding is required, and the contract remains an open‑market procurement under the existing master agreement. The notice also reiterates a 15 % BEP (Business Enterprise Program) participation goal. • Extends JPMC Food & Grocery contract (originally P‑37249) to 28 Feb 2027. • No new scope; only contract duration change (≈ 3 months). • Existing contract; not a competitive solicitation (sole‑source). • BEP participation goal of 15 % remains in effect.
