City of Gresham Armed Guard Services

The City of Gresham is requesting proposals for armed guard services under an RFP with proposals due October 10, 2026, with intent to select one firm.

The scope of work, deliverables, and performance requirements will be detailed in Exhibit A of the Personal Services Contract. Payment structure — either lump sum or time-and-materials not to exceed a maximum amount — will be determined during contract negotiation. The awardee must maintain Workers' Compensation insurance in compliance with Oregon Revised Statutes 656.017, Professional Liability insurance with a minimum combined single limit of $1,000,000, Commercial General Liability insurance with a minimum combined single limit of $1,000,000, and Commercial Automobile Liability insurance with a minimum combined single limit of $1,000,000. All coverage must designate the City and its officials, agents, officers, and employees as additional insureds. Proof of insurance must be provided prior to commencing work.

Proposals must include a signed Certification Statement, the mandatory submission form that requires the proposer's Federal Taxpayer Identification number and confirmation that the proposal was independently developed without collusion and that the firm has not discriminated against minority, women, or emerging small business enterprises in subcontractor awards. All proposals and cost schedules remain valid and binding for sixty days following the proposal due date or any revised submission date, whichever is later. Proprietary information must be clearly marked; proposals may otherwise be released as public information in accordance with applicable law.
