NASPO Notice of Intent to Participate - Public Safety Video Products and Solutions

The State of Oregon, through Marion County, is participating in a NASPO ValuePoint Cooperative Purchasing Program solicitation for Public Safety and Law Enforcement Video Products, Services, and Solutions originally issued by the State of Oklahoma. The procurement seeks to establish participating addendums for state agencies, institutions of higher education, political subdivisions, and other authorized entities to purchase video-related products and services. Potential deliverables include video equipment, software, installation services, maintenance, and repair solutions specifically tailored for public safety and law enforcement applications. The initial master agreement term is two years, with potential renewals extending up to five total years. Vendors will be selected through multiple potential processes, including highest-ranked proposer selection, brand name justification, cost comparison, and best value analysis. The Notice of Intent to Participate was posted on December 16, 2021, with protests and responses due by December 23, 2021.

The procurement does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Oregon estimates historical purchasing of approximately $750,000 for similar products and services from April 2020 to May 2021, though this does not guarantee future spending levels. The state reserves the right to enter into participating addendums with one or more awarded contractors from the Oklahoma solicitation or potentially elect not to proceed with any addendums. Contractors will be required to comply with Oregon tax laws, the Oregon Consumer Information Protection Act, and various state and federal requirements. The participating addendum covers a comprehensive range of public safety video products, allowing purchasing entities flexibility in vendor selection while maintaining competitive pricing and performance standards. Specific award values are not precisely defined, but the procurement suggests significant potential contract opportunities for qualified vendors in the public safety video technology sector.
