Ingersoll Rand Rotary Screw Air Compressor and Install Services

The Oregon Department of Corrections (DOC), specifically the Two Rivers Correctional Institution (TRCI), is seeking to procure an Ingersoll Rand Rotary Screw Air Compressor and associated installation services. The specific model required is the Ingersoll Rand R11i-125, with precise specifications including 15 HP, 125 max PSI, 460 Volt, 120 Gallon Tank, and an EX 70 Controller. This procurement is intended to add a third compressor to the existing two-unit system currently powering the facility's doors, with the goal of enhancing maintenance rotation capabilities. The solicitation is being conducted through Oregon Buys, with a strict submission deadline of April 29, 2022, at 9:00 AM Pacific Time. Vendors must provide detailed pricing including the compressor cost, labor expenses, and total bid amount, along with specific lead times for delivery and installation. The procurement is uniquely positioned as a brand-specific acquisition, with the DOC justifying the Ingersoll Rand brand based on compatibility with existing infrastructure and potential cost savings in spare parts and staff training.

While the solicitation documents do not explicitly mention set-aside designations or specific vendor restrictions, the procurement is limited to vendors capable of supplying the exact Ingersoll Rand R11i-125 model and providing installation services. The total estimated cost for the air compressor and installation services is between $12,000 and $15,000, indicating a relatively small-scale procurement. The contract opportunity appears to be specifically targeted at vendors with direct access to Ingersoll Rand compressors and the technical capability to install the unit at the Two Rivers Correctional Institution. No incumbent vendors are explicitly named in the documentation. The procurement is geographically constrained to the Oregon Department of Corrections' facility, with the primary objective of expanding and maintaining the existing compressed air infrastructure. Potential bidders should note the strict brand specification and technical requirements, which will likely serve as key evaluation criteria for vendor selection.
