About this opportunity
The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division is seeking bids for an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for canned tomatoes, specifically targeting an estimated procurement of 9,520 cases. The solicitation requires diced tomatoes meeting precise specifications, including Grade B or better quality, with sodium content not exceeding 240 mg per 100 grams, and flexibility in packaging (cans or pouches). Bidders must submit detailed pricing calculated to four decimal places, inclusive of transportation and delivery charges, with delivery being FOB destination to ODOC's Central Distribution Center in Salem, Oregon. The procurement anticipates ten full truck loads, approximately 40,000 pounds per load, with a mandatory minimum twelve-month shelf life for all delivered products. The bid was released on July 21, 2025, with a strict closing date of August 4, 2025, at 9:00 AM PST, requiring vendors to adhere to specific packaging, labeling, food safety, and product quality standards.
The solicitation includes notable preference provisions, offering a 5% preference for Oregon goods and services and an additional 5% preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon, potentially providing up to a 10% total preference advantage. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the bidding process appears open to qualified vendors meeting the technical specifications. The most recent historical pricing reference indicates the previous purchase was made in March 2025 from Highland Wholesale at $14.95 per case. The procurement does not specify a precise award value or comprehensive budget range, but the estimated volume of 9,520 cases suggests a significant contractual opportunity. Potential bidders must carefully review the ITB documentation to ensure full compliance with ODOC's detailed requirements for product quality, packaging, delivery, and pricing structures.
