Aluminum Boarding Dock Fabrication and Delivery for Mayer State Park Boat Launch

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is conducting a competitive procurement for the fabrication and delivery of seven aluminum boarding dock sections for the Mayer State Park Boat Launch located in Wasco County. The Invitation to Bid (ITB) S-63400-00005965 seeks a vendor capable of manufacturing and delivering custom aluminum dock sections with specific design and material requirements. A mandatory pre-bid site visit was scheduled for April 1, 2022, and sealed bids were due by 2:00 PM on March 30, 2023. The project involves complete fabrication, delivery, and offloading of dock sections at the park, with award to be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. Evaluation criteria will focus on pricing, technical compliance with specifications, and the vendor's ability to meet the precise dimensional and material requirements outlined in the bid documents. The preliminary bid tabulation indicates multiple vendors submitted proposals, with base bid totals ranging from $251,902.00 to $325,683.73.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly identified in the procurement documents. The bid does not appear to have limitations on the type of organizations that can respond, suggesting open competition among manufacturers capable of producing marine aluminum dock sections. Topper Industries I, LLC of Woodland, Washington, was ultimately identified as the lowest responsive bidder and is expected to receive the contract award. The procurement documents do not reference an incumbent vendor, and no specific budget ceiling was publicly disclosed. The contract is structured as a one-time procurement with no renewal options, focused solely on the fabrication and delivery of the seven dock sections. Funding for the project will be provided directly by the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, with the total project value estimated between $250,000 and $330,000 based on the preliminary bid tabulation.
