About this opportunity
The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division is seeking bids for a sugar procurement contract through an Invitation to Bid (ITB) released on January 12, 2026. The solicitation requires three specific sugar varieties: 42,500 pounds of brown sugar, 127,500 pounds of white granulated sugar, and 42,500 pounds of powdered sugar, totaling 212,500 pounds. All goods must be delivered to ODOC's Central Distribution Center in Salem, Oregon, with pricing submitted per pound and including all transportation and delivery charges. Bidders must use the OREGONBUYS system for submission, with a clarification request deadline of January 20, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST, and a final bid closing date of January 26, 2026, at 9:00 AM PST. All procured sugar must meet FDA/USDA standards, have a minimum one-year shelf life, comply with Good Manufacturing Practices, and be subject to a 72-hour removal policy for rejected goods. Evaluation criteria include pricing, compliance with specifications, and adherence to state preferences.
The solicitation offers a notable preference program for Oregon-based businesses, providing a five percent preference for goods fabricated or processed entirely within the state and an additional five percent preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon, creating a potential maximum preference of 10%. Previous contract awards were distributed among multiple vendors: Shaver Foods for brown sugar, Advanced Commodities for white granulated sugar, and Alpine Food for powdered sugar. The contract includes standard insurance requirements and will be awarded based on competitive pricing and compliance with technical specifications. Historical pricing data suggests recent per-pound costs ranging from $0.5053 to $0.6786 across different sugar varieties. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the preference program appears designed to favor local Oregon businesses. The total estimated contract value would be determined by the unit pricing submitted by bidders, with the potential volume of 212,500 pounds providing a substantial procurement opportunity.
