The purpose of this invitation to bid is to establish a task order contract for the installation of various

traffic operations equipment for the Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT). This contract is

for maintenance of existing infrastructure.

date and make an award to all responsive bidders pursuant to O.R.C. 5513.02.

Contract Duration

The effective duration of this contract shall be from the Date of Award to one year after sale.

Vendors issued purchase orders within the limits of the contract duration shall complete the

required work even if this extends beyond the contract duration in accordance with the installation

requirements in Section 6.

Pricing

Vendors shall submit pricing for items on the Excel pricing sheet in accordance with the

terms and conditions and specifications contained herein.

These terms are described in Sections 5.5, 5.6, and 5.7.

All pricing submitted shall be effective for the entire duration of the contract.

Purchasing

When an item is required, ODOT will select the responsive Vendor to install the signal equipment

that provides the best value to the Department. The time required to complete the work may be

considered in this determination.

The Department may utilize its direct purchasing authority and purchase from other sources off

contract when the estimated amount is under $5,000.00, as long as the purchase complies with

ODOT purchasing rules. ODOT reserves the right to utilize its direct purchasing authority and

purchase from other sources off contract when all contract Vendors are unable to meet the

requirements of this contract.

Purchase Order

The District will issue purchase orders as the need arises. The purchase order will describe in

detail the needed work, including locations, and supplemental equipment information. Only one

District will be included on a single purchase order.

The purchase order will indicate whether the completion time is “standard”, “rush”, or “expedited”.

b. If the Vendor is unable or unwilling to comply with the completion dates stated

herein, the Vendor shall immediately notify ODOT. The Vendor and ODOT may

Vendor or pursue other means to accomplish the needed work.

3. ODOT will generate and submit the purchase order.

4. The Vendor shall complete the work as described in the work order/purchase order.

by part number or an approved equal that will be fully compatible to existing material. It will be the

lead time, with the exception of OUPS Location items 61a, 61b, and 61c which shall be completed
