Public Notice
A request for a “sole source procurement” was submitted to and approved by the School Board of Medford School District 549C on Thursday, February 3rd, 2022.
This is a sole source procurement to allow the District to enter into a direct contract with Spitz, Inc. and E&S Planetarium Software Co. to replace the existing technology in the North Medford High School planetarium with a modern, digital system, including the extraction of the existing system, installation of the Digistar 7 full dome planetarium software and 5.6 megapixel projector (“the Digistar System”), development of a new control console to integrate the Digistar System with the existing planetarium’s lighting and sound system, and providing on-site training to operate the Digistar System.
The Medford School District School Board made written findings that Spitz, Inc.
and E&S Planetarium Software Co. is the only vendor that the District has found, following a diligent and good faith search, that provides the types of goods and services described above, that the goods described above are only available directly from that vendor and that the sole source procurement will therefore be unlikely to encourage favoritism in the awarding of public contracts or to substantially diminish competition for public contracts, and would reasonably be expected to result in substantial cost savings to the Medford School District. Any affected person may file a written protest of the approval of this sole source procurement by delivering such protest within seven days of this public notice to:
Jackie Flory, Medford School District, 815 S Oakdale Ave, Medford, OR, 97501, and Attn: Jackie Flory.
This public notice is being published at least seven (7) days prior to the award of a public contract resulting from the approval of this sole source procurement.
