About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for two specific cheese products: Cheese, Shredded Blend (120,000 pounds) and Cheese, Sliced Low Sodium (40,000 pounds). The procurement requires delivery to ODOC's Central Distribution Center in Salem, Oregon, with specific logistics including three full truck loads (FTLs) for the Shredded Blend and one FTL for the Low Sodium Sliced Cheese. Delivery schedules are strict, with the first Shredded Blend delivery required within 30 days of purchase order issuance and subsequent deliveries 30 days apart, while the Low Sodium Sliced Cheese delivery must occur within 45 days of purchase order issuance. Pricing must be submitted on a per-unit basis with no more than four decimal places, inclusive of all transportation, fuel surcharges, and delivery charges. Bidders may submit bids for quantities between 50 and 100 percent of the requested quantity per line item. The solicitation requires all bids to be submitted through the OregonBuys system, with a bid closing date of January 2, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST.

The ITB offers preference points for Oregon-based businesses, with a five percent preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon and an additional five percent preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon, potentially providing a maximum combined preference of ten percent applied to evaluation pricing. The incumbent contractor is Horizon Sales, who previously held contracts for both cheese products at $1.28 per pound for Shredded Blend and $1.89 per pound for Low Sodium Sliced Cheese. ODOC reserves the right to request product samples, nutritional fact labels, product identification, and other certifications prior to award determination. Notably, this solicitation does not allow protests per ORS 421.438. Historical pricing suggests the potential contract value could range between $153,600 to $226,800, depending on the final awarded quantities and unit pricing. Bidders should be prepared to provide comprehensive documentation and meet the strict delivery and quality requirements specified in the solicitation.
