Move Services on a Requirements Basis

Multnomah County's Facilities and Property Management (FPM) Division is seeking multiple contractors to provide comprehensive move services on a requirements basis through a Request for Proposal (RFP) released on July 15, 2022. The procurement aims to secure up to two contractors capable of handling diverse moving needs, ranging from single furniture deliveries to complete departmental or building relocations. Contractors must provide moving, furniture installation, storage, and related services with the ability to work across county facilities. Key deliverables include on-demand moving services, furniture placement, storage solutions, and the capacity to manage complex relocation projects without subcontracting. The evaluation criteria will assess contractors based on three primary components: experience and capacity (50%), pricing (25%), and responsible business practices (25%). Proposals are due by August 19, 2022, at 4:00 PM PDT, with a planned five-year contract term. Qualified contractors must possess a warehouse for storage, maintain specific personnel requirements, and be able to pass background checks for work in secured county facilities.

The county strongly encourages participation from diverse business enterprises, specifically targeting Minority-Owned, Women-Owned, Service Disabled Veteran-Owned, and Emerging Small Businesses. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the contract will operate on an hourly, time and materials rate structure with fully loaded rates covering labor, materials, equipment, and associated costs. The county makes no guarantee of predetermined work volume, indicating that all services will be procured on an as-needed basis. Contractors must demonstrate comprehensive capabilities to meet all service requirements independently, without relying on subcontractors. The procurement is structured to allow flexibility in service delivery while maintaining high standards of professional moving and relocation services. Interested vendors will need to carefully review the RFP documentation and ensure they can meet the extensive operational and administrative requirements outlined in the solicitation.
