This is a Sole Source Protest document issued by the State of Oregon regarding a permissive cooperative procurement conducted by Clean Water Services, a district in Washington County, Oregon, in partnership with the National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) and the Oregon Cooperative Purchasing Program (ORCPP). The procurement involves the purchase of Juniper network equipment and 5-year wired assurance subscriptions for currently uncovered network devices through Structured Communications Systems, Inc., an authorized dealer for Juniper Networks, (US) Inc., leveraging State of Oregon Price Agreement No. 1606. The procurement was based on NASPO's Request for Proposal Solicitation No. SK18001 for Data Communications Products and Services. Interested parties were required to submit written comments to Kris Duffe, Procurement Specialist, by August 13, 2025, with protests of the sole-source determination due by August 19, 2025, at 3:00 PM PT, directed to purchasing.sos@sos.oregon.gov, attention Michael A. Williams, with the subject line "Protest Sole Source VotingWorks."

The total procurement amount is $36,121.99, which will bring Clean Water Services' cumulative purchases under the Juniper contract above the $250,000 threshold. Juniper Networks, (US) Inc. was the original contract awardee for the underlying NASPO solicitation. Protests of the sole-source determination must include a detailed statement of legal and factual grounds, a description of resulting harm to the affected person, and the relief requested.
