Scope Of Work
The Eastern Correctional Institution (ECI), a state-operated facility housing medium and maximum security incarcerated individuals, relies on a consistent ice supply to support daily operations. Ice is essential for food preparation and storage, as well as maintaining health and safety standards for both staff and incarcerated individuals, especially during extreme heat conditions.
This Invitation for Bid (IFB) aims to establish a five (5) year contract for the supply and delivery of 40-pound bags of tubed or cubed ice to ECI. The selected Contractor will ensure timely, consistent, and high-quality ice deliveries tailored to the facility’s operational requirements.
This contract will secure competitive pricing for ice delivery to maintain compliance with institutional health and safety standards and safeguard the well-being of all individuals within the facility. Deliveries will be scheduled based on ECI’s operational needs, requiring flexibility and reliability from the Contractor. Adherence to delivery timelines and quality standards will be critical to meeting the institution’s ongoing needs.
A. The Contractor shall provide ice as required by the facility, in tubed or cubed form.
B. The Contractor shall package ice in 40-pound bags, sealed to maintain cleanliness and hygiene. Bags must be durable enough to prevent breakage during handling and delivery.
C. The Contractor shall ensure all ice is manufactured using clean, uncontaminated, potable water that meets or exceeds state and federal health standards.
D. The Contractor shall store and transport ice in a temperature-controlled environment to prevent melting and re-freezing, which can degrade quality.
