This is a Price Proposal Form (Attachment E) for Request for Proposal #S-73000-00013261 issued by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) for Bridge Peregrine Monitoring services in the Portland Metro Area, specifically in Multnomah County. The proposal form requires bidders to provide pricing for five major task categories: Peregrine Falcon Monitoring (including Portland Metro Area monitoring and coordination with ODOT Maintenance and the Audubon Society of Portland), Reporting (field visit reporting and annual reports), Project Management, Expert Consultation (with 8 assumed hours), and Nest Management (including nest manipulation, incubation, and rearing and releasing of chicks, each with 4 assumed hours). Proposers must develop unit prices for personnel (identified as Key Person 1 and Key Person 2), travel, supplies, and other costs, applying these rates to the assumed hours provided for cost comparison purposes. The assumed hours noted in the proposal do not restrict actual contractual hours. Proposals were due on June 17, 2025.

The price proposal form is structured to allow bidders to input hourly rates and total costs for each task line item, with all pricing to be calculated and totaled on the form. Proposers must certify whether their goods and services qualify for the "Buy Oregon Preference," which applies to supplies and services fabricated or processed entirely in Oregon. The form does not disclose the specific budget range or contract value, but requires submission of a total bid amount. All proposed goods and services must comply with the specifications and delivery requirements outlined in the RFP, with evaluations expected to assess technical competence, scientific rigor, and cost-effectiveness of monitoring approaches. The specialized nature of peregrine falcon monitoring suggests qualification requirements in wildlife biology, ornithological expertise, and environmental monitoring protocols.
