Public Notice of Intent to Award Through Permissive Cooperative~6.pdf

This is a Public Notice of Intent to Award Through Permissive Cooperative Purchasing issued by Eugene School District 4J in Oregon. The district intends to award a cooperative purchasing contract to Capstone for PebbleGo K-5+ software in both English and Spanish versions through PACE Cooperative Contract #P00286. The public comment period extends until 4 PM on August 17, 2026, with comments to be submitted to purchasing@4j.lane.edu. The contract is authorized under ORS 279A.215(2)(a) and ORS 279B.060, with PACE having completed a procurement process substantially equivalent to those specified in state regulations.

The estimated contract value is $38,173.20 for fiscal year 2027. Eugene School District 4J selected this approach through a permissive cooperative contract, which allows the district to leverage PACE's completed competitive procurement process rather than conducting its own bid process. The public posting date was August 10, 2026, providing stakeholders with notification and opportunity to submit comments prior to the award finalization.
