second and third preferences. The preferences shall be combined and applied as a total percentage of
the original Proposal to determine the score for evaluation purposes.
Preferences will only be applied if there is at least one Offeror that does not qualify for that particular

for each preference will be deemed as not qualifying for that preference.

to receive the preference if the cost of the product(s) offered exceeds 50% of the total offered cost
for products and services. A Buy Ohio Offeror is also eligible to receive the Buy Ohio preference based
