The state of Ohio, specifically the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (DNR) operating in Franklin County, is seeking a qualified contractor to perform a valve replacement project at their headquarters located at 1500 Dublin Road in Columbus. The primary scope of work involves removing and replacing a 6-inch valve in the meter pit, which is currently experiencing a leak of approximately one to two gallons per minute, situated in the northwest parking lot area. The project requires completion by 5 PM on Friday, August 14, 2025, with a mandatory site visit preceding the work. Contractors must be prepared to submit a comprehensive bid demonstrating their ability to efficiently execute the plumbing repair, with the contract to be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Key submission requirements include invoicing through Ohio Shared Services (OSS), with options for email, fax, or mail submission, and all potential bidders must communicate with Jason Gibbs, the Customer Support & Warehouse Manager, for project-specific inquiries. The procurement opportunity appears to encourage participation from diverse vendors, with previous documentation indicating a preference for Minority Business Enterprises (MBE) and Executive Diversity, Growth and Equity (EDGE) vendors. Contractors must comply with various state regulations, including maintaining a drug-free workplace, adhering to ethics laws, and confirming they are not conducting business with restricted jurisdictions. The contract requires strict geographical compliance, with contractors prohibited from performing services offshore without explicit state approval. While no specific budget range is provided in the documentation, contractors must be prepared to complete the valve replacement within the specified timeframe and submit detailed documentation, including an OPERS Independent Contractor Form. Potential bidders should also be aware of additional compliance requirements outlined in the Standard Terms and Conditions and Addendum to Bid Quote Template, which cover various administrative and operational expectations for state government contractors.
