Evaluation. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder as determined by the State. The following preference programs will be applied to the bid evaluation process.

Veteran-Friendly Business Enterprise Program The Veteran-Friendly Business Enterprise (VBE) program provides preference or bonus points to certified companies competing for State contracts, including eligible construction services. The legal authority for the program is R.C. 9.318, while its administrative rules are found in OAC 123:5-1-01 and 123:5-1-16.

The VBE program applies to all state agencies' purchases made by bid or proposal under R.C.

125. The VBE program allows for:

1.Prices on bids submitted by veteran-friendly businesses to exceed those prices on bids submitted by businesses not certified as veteran-friendly by up to five percent and still be eligible for winning the award; and

2.Scores on proposals submitted by veteran-friendly businesses to be up to five percent lower than the proposal scores submitted by businesses not certified as veteran-friendly and still be eligible for winning the award.

Buy Ohio and Buy American Buy Ohio and Buy American bid preferences are enabled by RC 125.09, RC 125.11, and OAC 123:5-1-06.

These preferences permit bids containing products that are produced in Ohio or a border state, or the
