DRC Materials and Supplies for the Ohio Penal Industries (OPI) Vehicle Modification Center

The Ohio Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) Contract No. ITB020722 provides a comprehensive procurement solution for materials and supplies specifically designed for the Ohio Penal Industries (OPI) Vehicle Modification Center. The contract covers four distinct product categories: Category A includes abrasives, adhesives, electrical supplies, cutting tools, and painting accessories; Category B encompasses fasteners and hardware; Category C focuses on welding and soldering supplies; and Category D provides air filters and safety apparel. This mandatory use contract allows state agencies to purchase supplies with flexibility, offering a catalog discount of 20% for items not specifically listed in each category, and enables procurement in any amount and at any time.

The contract is awarded to Recio Supply Co. by the Ohio Department of Administrative Services (DAS), General Services Division, Office of Procurement Services, and is structured as a minority business enterprise (MBE) set-aside contract. The IDV is effective from November 21, 2024, to August 31, 2027, with potential cumulative renewals not exceeding 24 months at the discretion of the contracting agency. Specifically targeting transportation components and systems under UNSPSC code 25170000, the contract requires all suppliers to be Ohio-certified MBEs. While the state makes no guarantee of purchase volume, the contract provides a structured approach for state agencies to procure necessary materials through a pre-vetted vendor.
