Notice of Intent to Purchase Food for Nutrition Program

Clackamas County, acting on behalf of its North Clackamas Parks and Recreation District, is pursuing a procurement for food service products through a Notice of Intent to Purchase. The county intends to utilize Agreement #0537 under the State of Oregon Cooperative Price Agreement with U.S. Foods Inc. to acquire food for its nutrition program. The procurement process follows Local Contract Review Board Rules C-046-0440, with a total estimated purchase value of $370,419.00. Vendors interested in providing comments about this procurement must submit their feedback to Procurement Analyst Karen Brown via email by 5:00 PM within seven calendar days of the notice's issuance date. The original notice was posted on September 13, 2022, with a response deadline of September 20, 2022, presenting a relatively short window for vendor feedback.

The procurement appears to be an open cooperative agreement without specific set-aside designations or explicit restrictions on vendor participation. U.S. Foods Inc. is identified as the primary vendor through the existing state cooperative price agreement, suggesting they are the incumbent contractor for this food service product procurement. The contract covers food purchases for the North Clackamas Parks and Recreation District's nutrition program, with a five-year estimated total spending of $370,419.00. No specific details are provided about disadvantaged enterprise requirements or integration with existing technological infrastructure. The procurement method indicates a streamlined, cooperative purchasing approach that leverages an existing state-level pricing agreement to efficiently acquire necessary food service products for the nutrition program.
