SODC Concrete Project

The Southwest Ohio Developmental Center (SODC), operated by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD), is seeking a contractor to complete a concrete installation project in Clermont County. The procurement involves three specific concrete work areas: a 30' x 12' x 4" concrete pad at the Shelter House with a 4-inch gravel base, replacement of a 210 square foot concrete pad behind the Administration building, and replacement of a 14' x 12" curb at the Administration area. A mandatory site visit is scheduled for April 22nd, 2025, at 10:00 am, with quotes due by April 29th, 2025, at 4:00 pm. The project is expected to begin within 30 days of purchase order issuance, with all work to be completed during business hours (7:00 AM to 4:00 PM) on consecutive days. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder through a Basic Order Agreement (BOA), with contractors required to comply with Ohio Prevailing Wage Laws. Evaluation criteria include submission of a Standard Affirmation and Disclosure Form and a Contractor Information Form through OhioBuys, adherence to licensing requirements, and completion of criminal background checks for workers.

The procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, but contractors must meet stringent qualification requirements. Bidders must maintain necessary licenses, perform criminal background checks for workers, and adhere to strict safety and workplace conduct standards specific to a facility serving individuals with developmental disabilities. Contractors must also comply with Executive Orders 2019-12D & 2022-02D, which prohibit offshore services and restrict business activities related to certain international entities. While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project involves multiple concrete installation areas and requires detailed compliance with state regulations. Contractors must disclose their principal business location, service performance locations, and any potential subcontractor details. The procurement process emphasizes comprehensive documentation, including workforce demographics and company information, with a focus on transparency and regulatory compliance.
