“WHEREAS, the Commission is committed
to ensuring that schools
are built by responsible bidders
employing a qualified workforce.”
The State of Ohio’s Ohio School Facilities Commission in July 2007 approved Resolution 07-98 “Model Responsible Bidder Requirements List” to empower local school districts “to establish responsible bidder criteria to ensure (construction) projects are completed by responsible contractors employing a
qualified workforce.”

With a Responsible Bidder Workforce Policy, any contractor submitting bids for a school construction project must meet certain requirements outlined in the policy. These criteria keep quality construction, safety and accountability at the top of any plan to renovate or create a new school facility.

- All Required Work is Included in a Bid
- Investigate Abnormally Low Bids
