October 30 Stock Order

The Ohio Department of Veterans Services, specifically the Ohio Veterans Home Sandusky, is seeking to procure specific electronic and maintenance-related equipment through a targeted stock order procurement. The detailed order includes 10 Compact LED Lamps (White), 2 Fuse Pullers, 1 Tone and Probe Kit, 20 Package Quantity 4 units, and 10 Instant Adhesive items. Pricing for these items is strictly constrained and cannot exceed the established Grainger price contract #RSC023972 (Index #GPC511). The procurement is specifically for Erie County and has a clearly defined timeline, with the opportunity posted on October 30, 2025, and all responses due by November 7, 2025. Vendors must carefully adhere to the specified product specifications and pricing guidelines to be considered for this contract opportunity.

This procurement opportunity is explicitly reserved for Minority Business Enterprise (MBE) suppliers, which significantly restricts the pool of potential vendors. The set-aside designation means only certified minority-owned businesses can submit proposals for this contract. While specific award value details are not explicitly stated, the procurement appears to be a targeted, limited-scope purchase with precise equipment requirements. The restriction to MBE suppliers suggests a deliberate effort by the Ohio Department of Veterans Services to support diverse business participation in government contracting. The use of a Grainger price contract as a pricing benchmark indicates a structured approach to ensuring competitive and fair pricing for the required equipment.
