Solicitation # OEV26006180
Solicitation OEV26006180 is an Open Enrollment Vendor Assessment issued by the State of Rhode Island to establish a pool of pre-qualified retail energy suppliers for electricity and natural gas. The goal of this multi-year pre-qualification process is to separate qualitative requirements from quantitative pricing events, allowing the state to more efficiently execute future pricing contracts via mini-bids. The solicitation period runs from December 2, 2025, to October 31, 2027, with an initial contract term extending through October 31, 2028. Vendors previously awarded under OEV23002884 are exempt from reapplying. To be included on the qualified vendor list, applicants must pass a pass/fail evaluation based on several criteria, including active registration with the Rhode Island Public Utilities Commission, submission of recent audited financial statements, a detailed statement of relevant experience, and at least three client references. Required submission documents include a Vendor Certification Questionnaire, a Vendor Qualifications Assessment, and an MBE Participation Acknowledgment Form, all of which must be submitted electronically via Ocean State Procures. Administrative terms include a 1% contract administrative fee assessed on all purchase orders, which is withheld from payments by the state. Awarded vendors are required to submit quarterly reports to the Division of Purchases within 45 days of the close of each calendar quarter detailing all invoiced amounts.

MPA 419 FY26 OE Security Systems, Service, Maintenance and Parts
Solicitation # OEV26006172
The Rhode Island Department of Administration, Division of Purchases, is soliciting qualified firms for an Open Enrollment Master Price Agreement (MPA 419) to provide maintenance, repair, upgrade, and replacement services for security systems across all state agencies. This is a Request for Qualifications rather than a Request for Quotes, meaning the initial phase focuses on establishing a list of qualified vendors. The initial bid submission deadline is February 28, 2026, with contract awards beginning May 1, 2026. The initial term is for three years, with the possibility of two additional 12-month renewals. Following the initial award, new vendors may apply on a biannual basis. Selection is based on a pass/fail evaluation of qualifications; any failure in the required criteria will result in disqualification. Once the qualified vendor list is established, state agencies will issue mini-bids for specific scopes of work, and preference may be given to vendors offering the lowest rates. Awarded vendors must adhere to strict insurance requirements, including a $1,000,000 combined single limit for liability and automobile insurance, and $500,000 for crime coverage. Additionally, a contract administrative fee of up to 1% of the annual spend applies to all purchase orders under this MPA. All proposals must be submitted electronically via the Ocean State Procures portal.
