Notice of Intent to Purchase- Freightliner Dump Trucks

Clackamas County is issuing a Notice of Intent to Purchase through the State of Oregon Cooperative Purchasing Agreement # 4663, specifically seeking to acquire three (3) 2025 Freightliner Dump Trucks 114SD for its Department of Transportation and Development- Transportation Maintenance. These vehicles will be fully equipped with specialized controls for snow/ice removal equipment and high lift gates, indicating a focus on winter maintenance and transportation infrastructure support. The procurement process is being conducted in accordance with Local Contract Review Board Rules C-046-0440, with Premier Truck Group of Portland identified as the vendor. Vendors interested in providing comments about this procurement must submit their feedback to Procurement Analyst Jan O'Gara by 5:00 PM within seven calendar days of the notice's issuance, which was originally posted on March 4, 2024, with a response deadline of March 11, 2024. The comprehensive procurement includes not just the base truck models, but also requires complete integration of snow/ice removal operation capabilities and high lift gate functionality.

The procurement appears to be a standard government vehicle acquisition without specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged businesses or minority-owned enterprises. The total estimated purchase value is $815,685.00, which represents a significant investment in municipal transportation infrastructure. No information is provided about incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements beyond the specified truck equipment. The procurement will be executed through an existing state cooperative purchasing agreement, which suggests pre-negotiated pricing and terms have already been established. The specific truck model (Freightliner 114SD) indicates a targeted procurement with precise vehicle specifications designed to meet Clackamas County's operational needs, particularly for winter road maintenance and transportation services. The use of a cooperative purchasing agreement likely provides cost efficiencies and streamlines the procurement process for the county.
