IP Banking System - DRC270038 - OSC

The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction is releasing a Request for Information on a statewide financial management platform (IP Banking System, Contract DRC270038) with responses due August 14, 2026.

The RFI seeks vendor input on system capabilities, implementation approaches, and best practices for a platform that will manage trust accounts for incarcerated persons, process commissary point-of-sale transactions, handle child support and debt deductions, ensure compliance with Ohio Revised Code and ODRC fiscal policies, and support institutional cashier workflows across the corrections system.

This is an information-gathering phase to guide future procurement decisions. The RFI does not specify pricing terms, contract award amounts, funding sources, set-asides, response format requirements, bidders' conferences, site visits, or contract term details. The Ohio Office of the State Comptroller provides oversight. Responses should be submitted through OhioBuys, Ohio's centralized procurement platform.
