About this file
The document is an OFF53 Product Request Form issued by the Operational Services Division (OSD) in Massachusetts, designed to facilitate the addition of new products to the OFF53 Statewide Contract. The form provides a mechanism for state and local buyers to request items that may not currently be available in awarded vendors' catalogs, with OSD serving as the reviewing and coordinating agency for contract expansions.
The form outlines specific guidelines for product requests, noting that certain items are excluded from the contract, such as furniture, water, food, and most janitorial supplies (with limited exceptions for break room supplies). The process involves buyers submitting detailed product information, including vendor name, item description, SKU, and contact details, which OSD will then review to determine contract compatibility. The agency will assess the request, potentially reach out to awarded vendors to explore product inclusion, and communicate the outcome via email. Processing times vary, and buyers may be redirected to alternative statewide contracts if their requested items are more appropriately sourced elsewhere.
