ITB 10188 Purchase Flygt Submersible Pumps

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is seeking bids for Invitation to Bid (ITB) 10188, which involves the purchase of two Flygt submersible sewer pumps with accompanying control panels and commissioning/start-up services for Beverly Beach State Park in Newport, Oregon. The procurement specifically requires Flygt Model NP-3085.070 3" volute submersible sewer pumps or an approved equivalent product, with detailed technical specifications including motor requirements, cable specifications, sensors, and control panel components. Bids are due on September 7, 2023, with OPRD intending to award the contract on September 12, 2023, and require delivery of the pumps no later than January 1, 2024. The evaluation criteria will be based on the lowest total bid price, with the contract being awarded to the most responsive bidder. The ITB includes preferences for goods manufactured in Oregon and for products containing recycled materials, and requires comprehensive commissioning and start-up services to be performed by the contractor at the project site.

The solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or minority-owned businesses. The procurement appears to be open to all qualified vendors capable of meeting the technical specifications for the submersible sewer pumps and control panels. While no incumbent vendors are identified, the contract involves supplying specialized equipment for a specific state park infrastructure project. The technical requirements include specific provisions such as an automatic lead/lag alternation function via SmartRun VFDs and an intrinsically safe barrier for level transducers and floats. Although a precise budget range is not specified in the provided documents, the procurement involves the purchase of two pumps, control panels, and associated commissioning services, suggesting a moderate-scale equipment procurement for state park infrastructure maintenance. The jurisdiction is primarily associated with Lincoln County, with the delivery location specified as Beverly Beach State Park in Newport, Oregon.
