EOED Due Diligence Posting of Notice of Intent to Purchase Services from Another Massachusetts Entit

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts, through the Executive Office of Economic Development (EOED), is issuing a notice of intent to purchase services from the City of Medford to conduct a neighborhood economic development and land use study for the West Medford commercial district and immediate surrounding area. The EOED is posting this notice rather than conducting a full procurement, as they believe the City of Medford is uniquely positioned to provide this service, which represents the best value to the Commonwealth. The contract will be awarded to the vendor determined to provide the best value to the Commonwealth. Interested vendors must submit documentation demonstrating their ability to provide a comparable or better offer by 5:00 PM on Wednesday, July 5, 2024 through the COMMBUYS procurement system. Vendors must review and agree to the Commonwealth's standard contract terms and conditions, including prompt payment discount, electronic funds transfer, and tax identification requirements.

This opportunity is open to any interested and qualified vendors, but no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond are specified. The notice does not indicate any listed incumbent vendors or current contractors, nor does it provide any information about existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration. The notice also does not include any details about possible award values or budget ranges.
