About this opportunity
The Oregon Secretary of State's Office issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) #S-16500-00003846 for a comprehensive County Elections Staffing Research Study focusing on all 36 counties in Oregon, with specific emphasis on Marion County and Salem City. The primary objective is to conduct an in-depth assessment of county election offices' budget, staffing levels, and resource constraints, ultimately identifying significant staffing challenges and proposing potential funding models. Key deliverables include a summary of work requirements, analysis of county election budgets, identification of key challenges, and development of one or more proposed staffing models. Proposers must have key personnel with a bachelor's degree and at least 4 years of relevant research analysis experience. The proposal evaluation will be based on qualifications of key personnel, project implementation plan, and work samples demonstrating research experience. A pre-proposal conference was held virtually on September 12, 2022, from 4:00-5:00 PM PT, with proposals due by October 3, 2022. The draft report is due by February 15, 2023, and the final report is due by March 1, 2023.
The RFP does not explicitly specify set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types, though the Administrative Proposal Form indicates provisions for disadvantaged business outreach plans. Reed College was ultimately selected as the successful proposer after receiving the highest score during the evaluation process. The contract has a maximum, not-to-exceed compensation of $140,000, with the contract term running from the effective date through April 1, 2023. The target audience for the final report includes Oregon policymakers and budget writers. The selected contractor will be required to provide various insurance coverages and comply with applicable state and federal laws, including the Oregon False Claims Act. No information was provided about incumbent vendors or existing technological infrastructure that might require integration with the study's deliverables.
