CDW-G and Virtucom are in the second and final renewal for Windows and Chrome devices and related services through August 31, 2026, under a $34.6 million authority. Over $10.2 million has already been spent in the current report period alone. This signals a likely large-scale refresh or new multi-year device procurement for 1:1 and lab fleets that competitors in hardware, leasing, and lifecycle services should begin targeting now.

Pre-RFP
$34,600,000Jun 25, 2026

The district approved a second (final) renewal with CDW-G and SHI for software products and services through November 30, 2026, totaling $28 million. Current spend this period exceeds $3.5 million, showing ongoing reliance on these resellers. This sets up a future sourcing event for software licensing, cloud services, and support where alternative resellers and advisors can propose better pricing, aggregation, or management models.

Pre-RFP
$28,000,000Jun 25, 2026

Since September 2025, District 214 has been running a four‑phase community engagement process with EOSullivan to plan long‑term capital improvements, focusing on safety/security, infrastructure, mechanical systems, STEAM spaces, and classrooms. By Phase 3 (April–June 2026), the district had presented three scaled options to the community, refined the scope to a $300–$450 million cost range (roughly a 50% reduction from prior concepts), and gathered extensive survey and committee feedback on project priorities and affordability. The analysis suggests an “Option 2 or 2+” package under roughly $400 million could achieve community consensus, and notes that the community would be willing to consider a referendum as early as the November 2026 election if the Board chooses. No design firms, construction managers, or implementation vendors are yet selected for the eventual projects, so this is a prime pre‑RFP window for AEC, facilities planning, security, mechanical, and EdTech vendors to help the district translate this capital vision into specific, sequenced, and bid‑ready projects.

$400,000,000Jun 25, 2026

The 2025 ACFR letter describes a major sprinkler malfunction at the Wilmette Community Recreation Center (CRC) that caused significant building damage. Using insurance proceeds and additional budget planning, the District began major repair and upgrade work in 2025 that will continue through 2026. This positions CRC for substantial facility restoration, systems replacement, and possible program-space improvements. While specific vendors or bid events are not listed, the District notes over $18M in capital projects in 2024–2025 and another $6M planned for 2026, with CRC work explicitly highlighted. Vendors in architectural, engineering, construction, building systems, finishes, and recreation-facility equipment can expect ongoing and potentially additional procurements as phases are completed and new needs emerge.

Pre-RFP
$6,000,000Jun 22, 2026

Frederick Quinn Corporation prepared a final construction budget estimate for renovations to the Niles-Maine District Library lower level, including toilets, open areas, a makerspace, classroom, and four study rooms totaling about 5,135 sq ft. The estimate, dated June 10, 2026, is based on bid documents from April 13, 2026, bids received May 19, 2026, and scope reviews with subcontractors, and anticipates a five‑month construction duration starting around September 2026. The scope covers selective demolition, general trades, millwork, doors and glazing, acoustical treatments, flooring, painting, an operable glass partition, fire protection modifications, plumbing, HVAC, and extensive electrical and low-voltage work, with many owner‑provided items like furnishings, equipment, certain security devices, and accessories. This is a preconstruction budget and not yet a formal award, signaling upcoming contracting needs for owner‑side scopes such as furniture, equipment, technology (AV, monitors, room schedulers), security devices, hazardous materials abatement, and testing that are explicitly excluded or marked "by owner." Vendors can also track this as a likely awarded-CM-at-risk relationship with FQC and position for follow‑on fit‑outs, additional phases, or integration of systems after the September 2026 construction start.

Pre-RFP
$2,334,612Jun 10, 2026

The Village Board received a first reading of Ordinance 26-14 to approve a preliminary plat of subdivision and special use permit, with waivers, for an 11-acre warehouse and light manufacturing redevelopment at 8125-8145 River Drive and 8120-8140 Lehigh Avenue. The applicant, Midwest RE Acquisitions, proposes a 169,698-square foot single-tenant industrial building for BBJ La Tavola, including office space, parking, landscaping, and compliance with the 40-foot building height limit. The Plan Commission has now unanimously recommended approval with conditions relating to truck traffic, final design, and infrastructure improvements, but the Board has not yet taken action as this was a first reading only. This sets up substantial site design, infrastructure, landscaping, and tenant improvement work once entitlements are finalized. Vendors in industrial construction, engineering, stormwater, environmental services, and interior buildout can position for upcoming implementation and fit-out contracts tied to this large redevelopment.

Pre-RFP
$30,800,000Jun 9, 2026

Oakton approved a new five-year, $3.0 million subscription and maintenance contract for Ellucian Banner, Degree Works, Experience, ILP, and related Oracle security products. This locks in Ellucian as the core SIS/ERP and financial aid platform through July 2031, including CampusLogic-branded tools. The decision is made, but adjacent work around integrations, reporting, data quality, and future ERP evolution remains a live need for IT and functional offices.

$3,017,504Jun 30, 2026

The board approved a first and final renewal with Sentinel Technologies to continue district-wide wired and wireless data network upgrade services through June 30, 2027. The amendment extends a contract originally awarded in 2020, now not to exceed $43,970,000 over the four-year renewal term, funded by CPS and E-Rate. This confirms Sentinel as incumbent for network design, equipment procurement, and installation, signaling ongoing cabling, hardware, and related IT services work and future post-2027 rebid or refresh needs.

Contract Award
$43,970,000Jun 25, 2026

The board approved a June 2026 amendment to extend its managed print services and output device purchase/lease agreements with Active Office Solution LLC and Ricoh USA, Inc. through June 30, 2027. The original competitively bid contract began in 2020 and is now in its final extension with no option periods remaining, funded up to $20,000,000 across FY24–FY27. This locks in incumbents for now but signals a likely rebid or technology refresh before July 2027, creating future opportunity for print/MPS, device management, analytics, and adjacent IT services.

Contract Award
$20,000,000Jun 25, 2026

Chicago Public Schools is extending its long-running agreement with Omicron Technology Solutions for student key card systems and related software and support. The June 25, 2026 amendment adds three more years (through June 30, 2029) and increases the not-to-exceed amount by $555,000, with total planned spend of $1,110,000 across FY24-FY29. This confirms Omicron as the incumbent for ID, building access, and visitor tracking, creating potential follow-on needs for hardware, integration with Aspen SIS, security consulting, and complementary access control or badging solutions at the school level.
