This is an Executive Order (EO 2019-12D) issued by the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction (ODRC) establishing procurement guidelines and operational directives for the state agency. The document outlines ODRC's authority and procedural requirements for soliciting vendor proposals and managing contract awards across the department's operations. The order applies to all procurement activities conducted by ODRC and establishes the framework under which vendors may compete for state contract opportunities, including the canine handler training initiative referenced in the related solicitation.

The Executive Order establishes the administrative and procurement standards that govern ODRC's vendor selection process, including proposal evaluation criteria, contract award procedures, and performance management requirements. While the document does not specify pricing, set-asides, or funding details for individual contracts, it provides the overarching authority and compliance requirements that bidders must meet when responding to ODRC solicitations. All proposals submitted in response to ODRC contract opportunities, including those for canine handler training services, must adhere to the standards and procedures outlined in this Executive Order.
