About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) has issued an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for the procurement of vegetable shortening to be delivered to their Central Distribution Center in Salem, Oregon. The solicitation seeks approximately 800 cases of shortening, with specific requirements for ingredient composition, packaging, and labeling. Bidders must submit their proposals by March 28, 2023, at 9:00 AM Pacific Time, with a required delivery timeline of 45 days from the purchase order date. The procurement will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a unique evaluation approach that includes a 5% preference for Oregon-made goods and a 5% preference for bids from Oregon-headquartered companies. Pricing must be submitted on a per-unit basis with no more than four digits past the decimal point, and bidders must comply with all applicable federal, state, and local regulations related to the product.

The contract opportunity does not explicitly specify set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but it does provide a competitive advantage for Oregon-based businesses through the preference points system. There are no incumbent vendor details provided in the documentation. The contract will be awarded for an unspecified term until the full quantity of shortening is delivered, suggesting a potentially flexible procurement arrangement. While a specific budget range is not detailed, the procurement involves approximately 800 cases of vegetable shortening, which implies a moderate-scale purchasing initiative. The solicitation includes comprehensive requirements for product inspection, rejection procedures, warranties, and recall protocols, indicating a rigorous procurement process with significant attention to product quality and vendor performance standards.
