The Oregon Water Resources Department is conducting a procurement for A&E Services related to a Conduit Condition Assessment Project for Rink Dam, located in Coos County, Oregon. The procurement follows a Request for Proposal (RFP) process under Price Agreement PO-DASOBO-00016748 for Dam Safety Engineering Analysis, specifically focusing on Conduit Condition Assessments and Repair/Replacement Alternative Analyses Services. Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. has been selected as the intended contractor for this work, with the selection based solely on original proposals submitted. The contract involves comprehensive engineering analysis to assess the condition of dam infrastructure and develop potential repair or replacement strategies. Key evaluation criteria appear to include vendor availability, resources, familiarity with project locale, past performance, work quality, schedule adherence, and cost control. The procurement timeline is relatively compressed, with a notice posted on September 8, 2023, and a protest deadline of September 12, 2023, at 4:00 PM. Potential vendors or interested parties who wish to contest the selection may submit written protests to Robin.V.Ramsey@water.oregon.gov by the specified deadline.

The procurement documents do not explicitly indicate any specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. No information is provided regarding disadvantaged enterprise provisions or specific organizational eligibility requirements. Similarly, no detailed budget range or potential contract value is disclosed in the available documentation. While Jacobs Engineering Group Inc. appears to be the intended awardee, the documents do not confirm whether they are a continuing incumbent or a new vendor for this type of work. The procurement is limited to the Rink Dam project in Coos County and seems focused on specialized dam safety engineering services. No information is provided about potential integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology systems. The contract will be executed through the existing Price Agreement PO-DASOBO-00016748, suggesting this is part of a pre-established framework for engineering and architectural services within the Oregon Water Resources Department.
