6. Market Research:

Market research and a previous contract has found only Waste Management of Oregon capable of providing the refuse service. Market research was conducted and found many small businesses that match the NAICS code 562111. By searching for key words on the Internet search browser, Small Business Administration Dynamic search, and on www.FBO.gov, we found several small businesses listed for waste collection services. Due to the fact that the waste collection service utility is managed by the City of Portland, and their primary waste collection servicer is Waste Management of Oregon, a large business, we discovered that there are no small businesses which have the capacity to provide disposal bins and a weekly service. Waste Management of Oregon is the primary waste collection in the City of Portland without causing a break or any disruption in work.
