The procurement opportunity was posted on April 4, 2025, with a response deadline of April 21, 2025, targeting outdoor recreational water refill stations. The specified units are ADA-compliant, constructed of high-density polyethylene with a granite finish, measuring 43-3/4 inches wide, 24-1/2 inches deep, and 60-1/4 inches tall, featuring vandal-resistant components, push-button activation, and no electrical power requirement.

The procurement will be conducted through OhioBuys, the state's primary procurement platform, and is open to all qualified vendors without specific set-aside designations. Vendors must provide quotes for the water fountain units and demonstrate compliance with state contractual requirements, including maintaining commercial general liability insurance of $1,000,000 per occurrence, workers' compensation coverage, and automobile liability insurance. The water refill stations come with a 1-year limited warranty and are designed to support environmental sustainability by reducing plastic bottle usage in outdoor settings. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, contractors are expected to submit competitive pricing for the four water fountain units, with system participation requiring vendors to obtain an OH|ID for platform access.
