Notice of Intent to Award a Cooperative Contract

The Beaverton School District intends to award a cooperative contract through the Oregon Cooperative Procurement Program for labor, materials, and installation of new commercial dishwashers at seven school locations: Barnes, Cedar Park, Highland Park, Mountain View, Sexton Mountain, Southridge, and Whitford schools. The procurement will include complete demolition and disposal of existing dishwashers, utilizing State Contract #9499 for Universal Restaurant and Related Services. The contract will be awarded to Curtis Restaurant Equipment, Inc. through a permissive cooperative procurement method authorized under Oregon Revised Statute 279A.215(2)(a). The notice was posted on April 3, 2025, with a public comment and protest period ending on April 10, 2025. Interested parties can submit comments or protests to Peter Madaus, Purchasing Manager, via email at contracts@beaverton.k12.or.us or by phone at (503) 356-4555.

The contract appears to have no specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, though the district emphasizes non-discrimination policies that prohibit bias based on race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, and national origin. The total contract value is approximately $377,178.50, which covers equipment procurement, labor, and installation services across the seven school sites. The procurement will utilize an existing state contract, suggesting that vendor qualifications have been pre-vetted through the state's procurement process. Potential respondents should be prepared to demonstrate capability in commercial dishwasher installation, removal, and disposal services. The contract will be executed through Washington County, with Barlow City listed as an associated jurisdiction, indicating a localized procurement approach focused on serving the Beaverton School District's infrastructure needs.
