Notice of Intent to Purchase Through Permissive Cooperative Procurement

This is a Notice of Intent to Purchase issued by Clean Water Services District, a member of NASPO (National Association of State Procurement Officials) and ORCPP (Oregon Cooperative Procurement Program), announcing its intent to procure Juniper wired assurance subscriptions through State of Oregon Price Agreement No. 1606. The District plans to purchase five years of Juniper wired assurance subscriptions for currently uncovered network devices. The procurement will be conducted through a permissive cooperative purchasing arrangement based on NASPO's Request for Proposal Solicitation No. SK18001, which was previously awarded to Juniper Networks, Inc. Prospective vendors may submit written comments regarding this purchase intent to Kris Duffe, Procurement Specialist, at Clean Water Services, 2550 SW Hillsboro Highway, Hillsboro, Oregon 97123, with a comment deadline of August 13, 2025.

Clean Water Services will purchase the Juniper wired assurance subscriptions from Structured Communications Systems, Inc., a local authorized Juniper dealer, for $36,121.99. This purchase will bring the District's cumulative expenditures under the Juniper contract to exceed $250,000. The procurement utilizes a pre-established master agreement framework, allowing the District to leverage competitive pricing already negotiated through the state's cooperative procurement process rather than conducting an independent competitive solicitation.
