About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) Purchasing/Contracts Division is conducting an Invitation to Bid (ITB) for Tuna, Light Meat in Water, targeting procurement for its Central Distribution Center located in Salem, Oregon. The solicitation seeks to acquire approximately 4,320 cases of light meat tuna in water, with an estimated requirement of three full truckloads. The ITB was issued on January 9, 2024, with key procurement dates including a clarification request deadline of January 16, 2024, and a bid closing date of January 23, 2024. ODOC will award one or more contracts based on the lowest responsive and responsible bid, evaluating submissions per line item, group of items, or total items. Bidders must strictly comply with all specifications, including precise delivery requirements, packaging standards, labeling protocols, and mandated shelf life conditions. The procurement is being conducted under statutory authority of ORS 421.438 and OAR 291-164-0120, with a notable provision that this solicitation does not allow for protests.

The ITB includes potential preference mechanisms, specifically a 5% preference for Oregon-produced goods and services and a 5% preference for resident bidders headquartered in Oregon. While no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are explicitly mentioned, the procurement appears open to qualified vendors who can meet the technical specifications. Historical pricing data indicates the previous purchase of similar goods was completed on 11/23 at $47.48 per case, which may provide context for bidders in developing their pricing strategies. The contract's start date remains undefined, and ODOC retains discretion in contract award methodology. No incumbent vendors are specifically identified in the documentation, and no explicit requirements for technological integration are outlined. The estimated total procurement value, based on the 4,320 case volume and historical pricing, could potentially range between $205,000 and $215,000, though actual costs may vary depending on current market conditions and vendor proposals.
