About this file

This is a Questions and Responses document for Audit Scoping RFQ 170-4411-24 issued by the Oregon Department of State Lands. The RFQ seeks vendors to perform audit scoping work across ten specified audit areas, with a period of performance from April 2024 through April 2025. Vendors may bid on select audit areas rather than being required to bid on all ten areas. The audit scoping work is not to exceed $100,000. A firm awarded the audit scoping contract is prohibited from subsequently bidding on the actual audit work itself. No multi-year contract will follow this scoping engagement; the referenced multi-year language in the original solicitation pertains only to potential future auditing work that may result from the scoping process.

There is no disadvantaged business enterprise set-aside for this procurement. Scoring will be based in part on whether a bidder maintains a local Oregon office with staff dedicated to the work, though this is not a mandatory requirement. The Pay Equity Certification threshold mentioned in the RFQ applies only to contracts exceeding $500,000 and does not necessarily indicate that subsequent audit work will reach that value. No incumbent vendor information or specific budget details beyond the $100,000 scoping cap are provided in the questions and responses.
