Ohio Rev. Code § 5525.02: Qualification and classification of bidders.

Sections 5525.02 to 5525.09 of the Revised Code shall govern the qualification and classification of all bidders desiring to offer bids for the performance of contracts proposed to be awarded by the director of transportation, and all contracts attempted to be awarded to any person other than a bidder previously qualified in compliance with such sections shall be void, except that bidders submitting bids on environmental remediation and specialty projects for which there are no classes of work established by rules adopted by the director are not subject to the qualification requirements of sections 5525.02 to 5525.09 of the Revised Code. The director shall cause to be prepared the rules authorized to be made by the director, together with all printed forms for applications for qualification and statements of prospective bidders, and shall cause copies of the same to be disseminated as the director considers appropriate. All applications, statements, and other forms that applicants for qualification may be required to use shall be furnished by the director to any person on request.
