Oklahoma County commissioners open bids, approve awards including ballot printing with small per-ballot price uptick
Summary
Commissioners opened multiple procurement bids for highway materials and other supplies, awarded a court clerk shelving contract to Storage Equipment and Container Company, and approved a ballot-printing award despite a modest per‑ballot line‑item increase (about $0.005–$0.01 on some items).
County commissioners opened and approved several procurement actions Tuesday, including multi‑vendor bid tabulations and awards for county operations and election printing.
Procurement staff opened CW26025-2 (Highway Materials Supplies and Services) and listed bidders including TJ Campbell, A Trucking, City Seal, Schwartz Paving Company, Ergon Asphalts and others. After the opening, commissioners voted to have the bids tabulated for return.
On P26160-15, a request for proposals for court clerk shelving units, staff said four bids were received and recommended award to Storage Equipment and Container Company as “lowest and best,” citing responsive unit pricing and delivery timeframe. Commissioners approved the recommendation by voice vote.
Staff also recommended award for CW26075, the printing of voter ballots. Procurement noted that only one bid was received; staff observed “a slight increase anywhere from half a cent to a cent on some of the line items per ballot” because multiple ballot types have differing line‑item pricing. The overall per‑ballot increase was not specified during the discussion. Commissioners approved the recommendation.
Other routine procurement items — including blanket approvals and a P‑card standard — were approved by unanimous voice vote.
The county clerk and procurement office will complete bid tabulations and notify successful vendors per the county’s purchasing procedures. No protests or formal appeals were recorded during the meeting.
