The Ohio Department of Natural Resources' Division of Wildlife is conducting a Quick Quote solicitation through the Ohio Buys procurement platform for three Champion Power Equipment generators, specifically Model #201282. These are 5,000/4,000-Watt Gasoline Powered Portable Generators with 120/240V capabilities, CO Shield technology, CARB Compliance, and RV-Ready status. The generators will be delivered to the Ohio Division of Wildlife District 5 Headquarters in Xenia, Ohio, with detailed technical specifications including a 224cc engine displacement, 105 lb weight, yellow color, and the ability to produce 4000 running watts and 5000 starting watts. The procurement will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with proposals to be submitted electronically by May 23, 2025. Evaluation will be conducted on a low lot total basis, calculated by multiplying unit costs with estimated usage, and bidders must quote all required items to remain eligible. The primary contact for this opportunity is Kelsea Downs, who can be reached at 614-273-9332 or Kelsea.Downs@dnr.ohio.gov, and the procurement emphasizes a F.O.B. Destination/Pre-Paid/Allowed delivery method.

While the document does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for specific types of organizations, the procurement appears to be open to qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications. No incumbent vendors are directly identified in the provided documentation. The procurement is limited to Greene County within Ohio, potentially restricting the geographical scope of potential bidders. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the solicitation involves three generators, suggesting a moderate-scale procurement. The delivery destination at the Ohio Division of Wildlife District 5 Headquarters indicates this purchase is likely part of a broader equipment modernization or replacement strategy for the agency's operational needs. The specific technical requirements, such as CARB Compliance and CO Shield technology, suggest the agency has precise performance and safety standards for the generators being procured.
