What Ohio agencies are planning

Upcoming projects, grants and hiring found in council minutes and budget hearings, before the solicitation.

OpportunityThe board adopted a resolution to participate in the Ohio Facilities Construction Commission’s Classroom Facilities Assistance Program (CFAP) Segment Three. Segment Three’s scope is to build two new high schools for grades 9–12 and to abate and demolish the existing Grove City and Westland High Schools, with no additional actions required for other schools that have already been addressed in prior CFAP segments. The total project budget for this segment is listed as $225,519,250, split evenly between a state share and local share of $112,759,625 each. The district acknowledges OFCC recommendations to engage design and construction professionals and is working from an existing Facilities Assessment Report and updated enrollment projections to develop a master facilities plan. This sets up an OFCC-governed capital construction program where vendors in K‑12 facility design, construction management, abatement/demolition, sitework, and building systems can align themselves with the CFAP process and upcoming procurement packages.South-Western City Schools · Jun 29, 2026$225,519,250OpportunityThe Board will consider a resolution to issue and sell bonds in a maximum principal amount of 220000000 under voter-approved Issue 49 to construct, renovate, remodel, enlarge, furnish, equip, and otherwise improve school buildings and sites. This is the second major tranche under Issue 49, following a prior authorization of up to 100M and an initial 75M issuance in June 2025. These bonds will finance multi-year capital projects across CMSD’s portfolio, including new construction, major renovations, and site improvements. Architecture, engineering, construction, project management, furnishings, security, and building systems vendors should track this closely: as cash becomes available from this issuance, CMSD will sequence specific capital projects that will ultimately require design, construction, FF&E, and related professional services procurements.Cleveland Municipal Schools · Jun 23, 2026$220,000,000OpportunityOrdinance 2026-08 concerns rezoning about 31 acres at Greensburg Road and Winning Way from R-1 to PD for the Greensburg Meadow Planned Development, with an amended conceptual site plan for roughly 101 homes valued at $450,000–$600,000 each. A public hearing on May 26, 2026 featured extensive discussion of noise, traffic, schools, and buffering, and the developer Sommers Development Group reported Planning & Zoning Commission approval and willingness to work on mitigation measures. During Council discussion, a member specifically asked for a turn lane off Mayfair Road if the project proceeds and expressed interest in a residential TIF on the project, with staff noting a TIF would come back to Council. This indicates upcoming planning and potential public infrastructure financing tied to the development—such as road, utility, or noise mitigation work—where engineering, traffic, and financial advisory vendors could assist with impact studies, TIF structuring, and design of required improvements.Town of Green · May 26, 2026$61,000,000OpportunityThe Finance Director presented Trenton's FY 2027 tax budget, projecting $25.8 million in revenue and $26.4 million in expenses, and outlining rate assumptions for water, sewer, garbage, and street lights. The plan assumes no residential water/sewer increases, modest increases for large users, and a 4% garbage rate bump tied to future Rumpke pricing, plus about $400,000 for water meter replacements. This is early budget planning, so departments will soon refine operating and capital needs, creating upcoming opportunities for utility, meter, and financial planning vendors.City of Trenton · Jun 18, 2026$26,433,786115 more pre-RFPs matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →

Recent projects and awards in Ohio

Contract awards and project updates from public meetings, largest and newest first.

On June 22, 2026, council adopted Resolution 26-R-3435 authorizing a construction administration proposal with Verdantas for Wastewater Treatment Plant EQ basin improvements Phase 2. The administrator’s July 6 report shows Clarifier Improvement Phase 1 under construction with Union Industrial, and Phases 2 and 3 being resubmitted for OPWC Round 39 and 40 funding. This establishes Verdantas and Union Industrial as key incumbents and signals additional clarifier and plant work once future grant/loan requests are approved.Contract Award · Town of Jefferson · Tuscarawas County · Jul 6, 2026$1,373,000The 2026 Annual Asphalt Repair Program (Contract 2026.08) received six bids on June 22, 2026, with Phillips Paving named the apparent low bidder for the base bid and three alternates. The engineer’s estimate for the base work was $1,000,000, and Phillips’ total with alternates is reported at $1,622,490.00, covering multiple streets and parking areas (including Solon Road, a dual school parking lot, and the Water Reclamation parking lot) funded from various street, infrastructure, and Sewer Plant R&I accounts. Reference checks with ODOT District 12, Geauga Park District, and Bainbridge Township were positive, and a pre‑award conference with Phillips was held June 24, 2026. The Engineering Department recommends legislation to award the base bid (sections A–H) plus specific alternates totaling over $1.6M. This makes Phillips the 2026 asphalt repair incumbent and signals Solon’s scale of resurfacing work and funding mix. Vendors in paving, materials supply, traffic control, striping, construction inspection, and testing can pursue subcontract and support roles now, and competitors can use these quantities and prices to prepare for future annual asphalt programs or related capital resurfacing projects.Contract Award · City of Solon · Cuyahoga County · Jul 1, 2026$1,622,490The document outlines projected FFY 2027 spending for Non-Emergency Transportation (NET) services managed by the Department of Job and Family Services, totaling 11000000 across multiple transportation providers. It lists nine incumbent vendors with specific projected allocations, indicating that the county plans to continue or enter into contracts with these firms for the period 10/1/26–9/30/27. This is effectively a forward-looking allocation plan, signaling anticipated contract values and vendor mix for NET services rather than an open competition. For transportation, brokerage, software, or support vendors, this provides clear intelligence on incumbent providers, approximate spend levels, and the program scale, which can inform timing for future rebids, performance support, technology upgrades, or subcontracting approaches.Contract Award · Summit County · Summit County · Jul 1, 2026$11,000,000The City is authorizing a construction contract with Proline Electric Inc. for SCADA Radio Improvements for Columbus Water & Power’s water system. The ordinance allocates up to $9,650,742.50 from the Water – Fresh Water Market Rate Fund for construction, plus an additional $2,000 from the Water Bond Fund for prevailing wage services, contingent on loan approval from the Ohio Water Development Authority. This follows earlier professional services and contract modifications for SCADA radio design and related engineering. The selection of Proline Electric marks a key phase in modernizing the water system’s SCADA communications. While the prime contractor is chosen, the size and complexity of the project suggest ongoing needs for equipment vendors, network and cybersecurity services, and integration with existing SCADA and control systems. Vendors can also track related SCADA work (e.g., SR-82 and CA-83) to identify complementary opportunities in monitoring, control, and redundancy upgrades.Contract Award · City of Columbus · Fairfield County · Jun 29, 2026$9,652,742Columbus Water & Power is moving ahead with the Wellington Boulevard Area and Chesterfield Road Water Line Improvements project by awarding a construction contract to Elite Excavating Company of Ohio, Inc. The ordinance appropriates and authorizes up to $5,983,216.80 from the Water – Fresh Water Market Rate Fund for the contract, plus $2,000 from the Water Bond Fund for prevailing wage services, contingent upon an Ohio Water Development Authority loan. An associated contract (SR-67) with CTL Engineering, Inc. covers construction administration and inspection for this and related projects. With the construction vendor selected, this project is entering implementation to replace or upgrade water lines in the targeted neighborhoods. Civil contractors, materials suppliers (pipe, valves, fittings), and restoration specialists may find sub-contracting work under Elite, and engineering firms can monitor for future design packages in nearby areas. The financing structure and scale also indicate the city will continue similar neighborhood water line improvements in upcoming capital cycles.Contract Award · City of Columbus · Fairfield County · Jun 29, 2026$5,985,216Columbus Public Service is authorized to enter into a contract with Setterlin Building Company for the Facilities – Marion Road Refuse Warehouse Renovation Phase 1 project. The ordinance allocates up to $3,969,402.00 from the Refuse Collection Bond Fund to renovate the warehouse facility that supports refuse operations. This is the first phase of a broader facility upgrade that likely includes building systems, structural improvements, and operational enhancements. With Setterlin as the chosen prime, the project is in the implementation stage, but it will require subs for HVAC, electrical, interior buildout, site improvements, and specialized waste-handling infrastructure. Vendors focused on industrial facility modernization, shop equipment, and warehouse technology can pursue subcontracting opportunities and position for future phases or similar facility upgrades in the city’s operations portfolio.Contract Award · City of Columbus · Fairfield County · Jun 29, 2026$3,969,402723 more Ohio projects matched to you in a free digestGet matches free →
