About this file
This is a Notice of Intent to Award a Contract issued by Washington County, Oregon's Procurement Office, establishing an interstate cooperative procurement agreement with Converge Technology Solutions as an approved reseller under IBM's cooperative contract. The procurement involves enterprise products and support for IBM FlashSystem Control Enclosures, with an estimated cost of $389,165.03 for a five-year contract period. The agreement is being pursued through the National Cooperative Purchase Alliance (Contract #01-67), with the Region 14 Education Service Center serving as the originating jurisdiction. Prospective vendors were required to submit written comments regarding the County's intent to enter into this cooperative agreement within seven days of the initial publication date, with a deadline of 5:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time on May 15, 2023. The County indicated it would respond in writing to any vendor submitting comments by the deadline and would make a determination regarding whether the cooperative procurement was in the County's best interest.
The notice does not specify individual pricing terms, set-asides, or information regarding incumbent contractors. The procurement is structured as an interstate cooperative purchase, which allows Washington County to leverage an existing approved vendor agreement rather than conduct a competitive solicitation. The County retained the right to reject the cooperative procurement if determined not to be in the public interest. This Notice of Intent was published on May 8, 2023, in the Daily Journal of Commerce.
