Re-Entry Employment Program Services

The Ohio Competitive Selection IDV (CSP905422) is a state-mandated contract for Re-Entry Employment Program Services specifically designed to support the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. The contract enables the procurement of comprehensive vocational training and employment services for offenders, including individuals currently incarcerated, on probation, or in halfway houses. Services are structured with two primary cost components: a monthly participant service fee of $560.41 and a $210.10 monthly program management reporting fee. The IDV allows for flexible service delivery, with eligibility extended to individuals within one year of release and a 60-day grace period for continued services after supervision termination.

The master contract is awarded to the Center for Employment Opportunities Inc. (CEO), a New York-based nonprofit organization, through the Ohio Department of Administrative Services (DAS). The contract is a competitive selection vehicle with a performance period from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027, covering the state of Ohio. As a requirements contract, the state makes no guaranteed volume commitments, providing flexibility in service utilization. The contract includes specific provisions such as offshore service prohibitions and restrictions on purchases from Russian institutions, with standard net 30-day payment terms. The total contract value is not explicitly stated, but the pricing structure and service scope indicate a significant investment in offender re-entry and employment support.
