Ohio Rev. Code § 5525.05
For the purpose of carrying into effect sections 5525.02 to 5525.09 of the Revised Code, and ensuring that the award of all contracts is made to competent and responsible bidders or the lowest and best bidders for environmental remediation and specialty work for which there are no classes of work set out in the rules adopted by the director, subject to and in accordance with Chapter 119. of the Revised Code, the director of transportation may adopt such rules as the director considers proper. The rules may cover the requirements of the department of transportation with respect to classes of work, joint ventures, subcontracting procedures, causes for revocation or nonrenewal of a certificate of qualification, establishment of a debarment process, equipment, past record and experience of applicant, personnel of organization, and any other matters the director considers necessary to enable the director to pass upon the qualifications of applicants. The director may make public lists of qualified bidders, but the lists shall not indicate the bidders' prequalification amounts.
