Waste Treatment in Illinois
Across Illinois, Waste Treatment Services procurement distributes across 5 buying agencies, led by Department of the Army (42%), Department of the Air Force (17%), Drug Enforcement Administration (17%). With Department of the Army at 42% market share and $268K in total state spending, the market offers a balance of focused and diversified strategies — contractors can specialize in the top agency or build a broader pipeline across multiple buyers. On the vendor side, the market is incumbent-heavy: the top 3 contractors — JEROME KOPEC, MEDPRO WASTE DISPOSAL, LLC, THOMPSON-GREENE INVESTMENTS L.L.C. — hold 82% of recent awards, meaning new entrants face significant barriers unless targeting recompetes or set-asides.
Looking ahead, 3 Waste Treatment Services contracts in Illinois are entering recompete windows, valued at an estimated $82.0M combined. Of these, 3 carry high takeover signals — meaning the incumbent's position is vulnerable based on the agency's historical vendor switching patterns. For contractors planning their Illinois pipeline, these recompetes represent the highest-probability wins: existing requirements with defined scopes, incumbent performance data on record, and established funding lines.
