About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division is seeking bids for a Cheese, Shredded Blend procurement through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) issued on August 11, 2022, with a bid closing date of August 25, 2022. The solicitation seeks approximately 120,000 pounds of shredded cheese, with bidders allowed to propose quantities ranging from 50% to 100% of the total requested amount. Evaluation criteria include pricing, with potential award based on the lowest responsive bid per line item, group of items, or all items. The ITB specifies detailed product requirements, including precise pricing guidelines that must include transportation, fuel surcharges, delivery charges, and packaging costs. Pricing must be submitted with no more than four digits past the decimal point, and historical pricing indicates the previous purchase was made at $1.29 per pound in May 2022. Key submission dates include August 18, 2022, as the deadline for requesting clarification or changes, with the contract start date to be determined by ODOC.

The solicitation includes specific preferences that may provide advantageous positioning for certain bidders, notably a 5% evaluation preference for Oregon goods and services and an additional 5% preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned in the provided documentation, the procurement appears open to qualifying vendors who can meet the specified product and delivery requirements. The total potential contract value is estimated based on the 120,000-pound quantity, with precise budget ranges not explicitly detailed in the ITB. Successful bidders must fully comply with all specified requirements, including strict product specifications, packaging standards, labeling protocols, delivery expectations, and subject to thorough inspection and potential rejection procedures. The procurement is specifically for Marion County through the Oregon Department of Corrections, with the intent of securing a reliable shredded cheese supplier for institutional food service needs.
