Summary

Amends the Illinois Procurement Code. Provides that a company of concern is ineligible to, and shall not, bid on or submit a proposal for a contract, directly or through a third-party seller, with a State agency for goods, services, or the procurement or purchase of computers, printers, or interoperable videoconferencing services needed for an office environment in which the manufacturer, bidder, or offeror, or any subsidiary or parent entity of the manufacturer, bidder, or offeror, of the equipment is an entity, or parent company of an entity, in which the People's Republic of China has any ownership stake. Provides that the prohibition also applies in cases in which a State agency has contracted with a third party for the procurement, purchase, or expenditure of funds on any of the equipment described in the provision. Provides that a State agency shall require a company that submits a bid or proposal with respect to a contract for goods or services to certify that the company is not a company of concern. Provides that, if the Department of Central Management Services determines that a company has submitted a false certification, (1) the company shall be liable for a civil penalty in an amount that is twice the amount of the contract for which a bid or proposal was submitted; (2) the State agency or the Department of Central Management Services shall terminate the contract with the company; and (3) the company shall be ineligible to, and shall not, bid on a State contract.
