Notice for Sole Source (Not an opportunity to submit bid)- The Cove Management Unit Septic Services

The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD) is conducting a sole source procurement for septic system services in the Cove Management Unit near Culver, Oregon, specifically targeting Josephine County. After issuing two unsuccessful Invitations to Bid (ITB) and conducting vendor outreach, OPRD determined that Greenbar Excavation LLC of Prineville, Oregon is the only qualified contractor capable of performing these specialized septic services. The procurement involves comprehensive septic system maintenance and services for the Cove Management Unit sites, with a focus on timely and efficient implementation. The contract term is set to end on June 30, 2025, with a total not-to-exceed amount of $25,000. Any potential protesters must submit written objections to the designated Single Point of Contact within seven calendar days of the public notice (by June 12, 2023). The sole source determination was based on limited vendor availability in the service area, the benefits of using a local company, and Greenbar Excavation's demonstrated capability to meet OPRD's specific requirements.

There are no explicit set-aside designations or restrictions on organizational types mentioned in the procurement documents. The contract appears to be specifically awarded to Greenbar Excavation LLC as the sole source provider, effectively precluding other vendors from competing for this opportunity. No information is provided about disadvantaged enterprise participation or alternative vendor qualifications. The contract represents a targeted, limited-scope procurement with a relatively modest budget of $25,000, focused on addressing specific septic system service needs in the Cove Management Unit. The procurement process emphasizes Greenbar Excavation's unique ability to perform the required services, with the selection based on their local presence, resources, and experience in meeting the technical requirements of the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department.
