EAM Landscape Equipment

The State of Oregon's Department of Administrative Services (DAS), Procurement Services, is seeking quotes for landscaping equipment through Request for Quote (RFQ) No. S-10700-00011711 on behalf of the Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) division. The procurement specifically targets battery-powered landscape tools and equipment from manufacturers like Stihl and Toro, including battery belts, carriers, cables, harnesses, mowers, blowers, edgers, and trimmers. The RFQ requires vendors to provide detailed information about product specifications, subcontractors, authorized repair facilities, and maintenance processes. Quotes must be submitted electronically to Vickie Tipton by October 17, 2024, at 4:00 PM PST, with a required delivery date of December 3, 2024, to the EAM location in Salem, Oregon. The evaluation criteria will focus on product availability, shipping time, costs, and overall alignment with the agency's needs. The procurement is specifically associated with Marion County and will result in a purchase order awarded to the vendor whose quote best serves the agency's interests.

The RFQ emphasizes a non-discrimination policy and indicates that the State of Oregon will not tolerate harassment or discrimination in the award consideration process. While no specific set-aside designations are explicitly mentioned, the procurement appears open to multiple vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications. The parts list indicates a significant volume of equipment, with quantities ranging from a few units to 35 units for specific items like AP300S lithium-ion batteries. Although a specific award value is not disclosed, the comprehensive equipment list suggests a potentially substantial contract value. The procurement allows for flexible delivery options, including inside delivery and customer pickup with potential discounts, and requires vendors to provide information about warranty coverage and repair authorization processes. No incumbent vendors are identified in the provided documentation, and the RFQ does not specify a contract term or renewal options.
