Core Clear and Charge Stations

The Ohio Attorney General’s Office is seeking a vendor to supply thirty Core Clear and Charge Stations (C3S) manufactured by 908 Devices, with the procurement estimated between $150,000 and $300,000. The solicitation, identified by SRC0000034815, emphasizes firm fixed pricing, strict adherence to specifications, and no substitutions or alternatives. Delivery is to be made to the Bureau of Criminal Investigations in London, Ohio, with all items required to be new, undamaged, and covered by the manufacturer’s warranty, which includes free replacement and repair during the warranty period. The vendor must not ship items or begin work until receiving an official purchase order and all contractual agreements from the AGO. The RFQ underscores compliance with Ohio Revised Code Section 9.27, prohibiting indemnification clauses favoring vendors, and incorporates AGO’s Goods Terms and Conditions, which vendors must accept unless exceptions are explicitly noted. All responses must be submitted electronically via Ohio Buys by November 7, 2025, with attachments in searchable PDF format or approved file types (.docx, .xlsx, .zip). The procurement process relies on a lowest-price, responsible, and responsive evaluation, with award made to the lowest qualifying bid. The AGO reserves the right to negotiate terms, reject responses, or cancel the solicitation. Delivery terms specify destination prepaid shipping, with no work permitted until official authorization is issued. The contract emphasizes strict compliance with AGO policies, warranty obligations, and delivery conditions, while also addressing public records law, requiring vendors to mark only specific information as exempt from disclosure. Overall, the contract centers on acquiring reliable, manufacturer-approved charging stations under clear, standardized terms governed by Ohio law and AGO policies.
