The Southwest Ohio Developmental Center (SODC), operated by the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities (DODD), is seeking to procure one patient floor lifter through a Request for Quotation (SRC 0000029938) for their Medicaid-certified Intermediate Care Facility for Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities located in Batavia, Clermont County. The preferred equipment is specifically an ARJO Maxi Move Floor Lifter (KMCSXN-D) without a scale and with standard castors, to be delivered to 4399 E. Bauman Ln, Batavia, Ohio 45103. Bidders must submit a complete electronic quote through OhioBuys, including the full model identification number, equipment picture, and comprehensive warranty information. The solicitation was released on 4/16/2025, with an inquiry period from 4/16/2025 to 4/23/2025 at 2 pm, and quotes are due by 4/29/2025 at 4 pm. Evaluation will focus on identifying the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with quotes required to remain valid for a minimum of 30 days and include all associated parts, labor, permits, and engineering services.

Contractors must complete and submit two critical documents: the Standard Affirmation and Disclosure Form (addressing Executive Orders 2019-12D & 2022-02D) and the Contractor Information Form, which requires detailed company demographics and employee information. The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors must affirm they meet minimum qualifications specified in the Request for Proposal and provide comprehensive organizational data, including current employee count and percentages of women and minority employees. The project is expected to commence within 30 days of award, and while a specific budget range is not disclosed, the procurement is for a single patient floor lifter for a specialized healthcare facility. Contractors must also provide detailed information about their principal business location, subcontractors, and service performance locations, with the State reserving the right to terminate the contract if offshore service requirements are not met.
