This Invitation to Bid (ITB) is issued by Marion County, Oregon for the Woodburn Health Building Remodel project (BS1788-26).

A mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for October 15, 2026, at 10:15 AM PDT at the project site; bidders or their representatives must be registered and present by 10:00 AM or will be deemed non-responsive.

The apparent successful bidder must provide performance and payment bonds each equal to 100 percent of the contract award amount, proof of insurance within fourteen calendar days of the intent-to-award notification, and evidence of Construction Contractors Board registration. Prevailing wage rates as established by Oregon's Bureau of Labor and Industries apply to this project. First-tier subcontractors meeting disclosure thresholds (5 percent of project bid with a minimum of $15,000 or $350,000 regardless of percentage) must be disclosed either with the bid or within two working hours of closing. Retainage of five percent will be held until project completion and acceptance, with provisions for alternative retainage options including interest-bearing accounts or acceptable bonds and securities. The contractor must comply with Oregon tax laws, maintain a qualifying drug-testing program for employees, and meet all non-discrimination requirements.

C.11.1 METHOD OF BID AWARD: Award will be made to the responsible Bidder submitting the lowest total for a responsive BASE BID. The County reserves the right to reject all Bids.
C.12 SUBSTANTIAL COMPLIANCE REQUIRED
Bids not in substantial compliance with ITB requirements cannot be considered and cannot be supplemented by submissions delivered after Closing. However, County may waive minor informalities and irregularities, and may seek clarification of any response that, in its sole discretion, it deems necessary or advisable.
C.13 BID EVALUATION CRITERIA
Bids will be evaluated to identify the lowest responsive Bid submitted by a responsible Bidder and not otherwise disqualified. (Refer to MCPCR 40-0380) Adjustments made to account for reciprocal preferences will be for Bid evaluation purposes only. No such adjustments shall operate to amend Bidder’s Bid, or any Contract awarded pursuant thereto.
C.13.1 RESPONSIVENESS: For its Bid to be considered responsive, the Bidder must substantially comply in all material respects with applicable solicitation procedures and requirements and the solicitation documents. In making such evaluation, County may waive minor informalities and irregularities.
C.13.2 RESPONSIBILITY: Prior to award of a Contract, County will evaluate whether the apparent successful Bidder meets the applicable standards of responsibility identified in MCPCR 40-0390.
In doing so, County may investigate Bidder and request information in addition to that already required in the ITB, when County, in its sole discretion, considers it necessary or advisable.
C.13.3 OREGON PREFERENCE: Awards shall be subject to preference for products produced or manufactured in Oregon, if price, fitness, and quality are equal; and, solely for the purpose of evaluating Bids, County will add a percent increase to the Bid of a non-resident Bidder equal to the percent, if any, of the preference given to the Bidder in the state in which the Bidder resides.
For example, if the Bidder is from a state that grants a ten (10) percent preference to local Bidders, County will add ten (10) percent to that Bidder’s Bid price (MCPCR 10-0300).
C.14 PROCESSING OF BIDS
Neither the release of a Bid Security, nor acknowledgment that the selection process is complete (whether by posting of a Bid tabulation sheet, issuance of notice intent to award, or otherwise), shall operate as a representation by County that any Bid submitted was complete, sufficient, lawful in any respect, or otherwise in substantial compliance with the ITB requirements.
C.15 WITHDRAWAL BY COUNTY OF BID ITEMS PRIOR TO AWARD
County reserves the right to delete Bid items. The deletion of one or more Bid items will not affect the method of award.
BS1788-26 - Woodburn Health Building Remodel Page 12 of 36

C.16.1 REJECTION OF ALL BIDS: County may reject all Bids for good cause upon its finding that it is in the public interest to do so.
C.16.2 REJECTION OF PARTICULAR BIDS: County may reject a particular Bid for any of the reasons listed under MCPCR 40-0440.
C.17 INTENT-TO-AWARD ANNOUNCEMENT
County reserves the right to announce its intent to award prior to formal Contract award by letter ("Notice of Intent-to-Award"). The Notice Intent-to-Award shall serve as notice to all Bidders that County intends to make an award.
C.18 PROTEST OF INTENT TO AWARD
Adversely affected or aggrieved Bidders shall have seven (7) calendar days from the date of the Notice Intent-to-Award within which to file a written protest. Protests submitted after that date will not be considered. Protests must specify the grounds upon which the protest is based.
C.18.1 In order to be an adversely affected or aggrieved Bidder, the Bidder must claim to be eligible for award of the Contract as the responsible Bidder submitting the lowest responsive Bidder and that any and all lower Bidders are ineligible to receive Contract award.
C.18.2 An actual Bidder who is adversely affected or aggrieved by the award of the Contract to another Bidder may protest award, in writing, within the timeline established. The written protest shall state the grounds upon which the protest is based. No protest of award shall be considered after the deadline.
C.19 RESPONSE TO INTENT-TO-AWARD PROTESTS
County will respond in writing to intent-to-award protests submitted by adversely affected or aggrieved Bidders. County may also respond to intent-to-award protests submitted by other Bidders for purposes of clarification. However, any response provided by County is not intended to, and shall not in and of itself constitute, confirmation that the Bidder is, in fact, adversely affected or aggrieved, and therefore entitled to protest an intent to award, or that the protest was timely filed.
C.20 AWARD
After expiration of the seven (7) calendar-day intent-to-award protest period, and resolution of all protests, County will proceed with final award. (If County receives only one Bid, County may dispense with the intent-to-award protest period and proceed with award of a Contract.)
C.21 COMMENCEMENT OF WORK
Contractor shall not commence Work under the Contract until the Notice to Proceed has been issued.
C.22 REVIEW OF AWARDED BID FILES
Awarded Bid files are public records and available for review at County by appointment during regular business hours (Monday through Friday).
