- The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) is seeking to purchase freight and commodity flow data to support the required update of the Illinois State Freight Plan. The updated data will be used to expand and enhance the analysis conducted for the previous Illinois State Freight Plan, including the development of a freight plan for each of the nine IDOT districts. The district-level analysis will provide a more in-depth assessment of freight conditions and needs, including identifying freight-related issues, identifying key freight corridors, refining or developing freight performance measures, and developing recommendations to support freight-related programming and investments. In addition, county freight profiles will be developed for each of Illinois' 102 counties to further enhance freight planning efforts throughout the State. The final deliverable will be the next Illinois State Freight Plan, incorporating the District Freight Plans and County Freight Profiles. IDOT is seeking freight and commodity flow data for the following modes: rail carload, rail intermodal, truckload (TL), less-than-truckload (LTL), private truck, inland water, and air. The Vendor shall meet all specifications and requirements stated in the Contract. The completed Attachment A - Mandatory Requirements Table must be uploaded in BidBuy under the Required Documents section of the Attachments tab. Failure to submit a completed Mandatory Requirements Table may result in the bid being deemed incomplete and rejected.
