Clackamas County, Oregon, through its Sheriff's Department, is issuing a Notice of Intent to Purchase emergency lighting and related equipment for sheriff fleet vehicles. The procurement will utilize an existing cooperative contract between the City of Beaverton and McLoughlin & Eardley dba Sirennet.com (Contract #3324-18). The specific procurement involves emergency vehicle equipment, with a total estimated purchase value of $320,000.00 for a one-year period. Vendors interested in providing comments or feedback are required to submit their responses to Procurement Analyst Kim Randall by 5:00 PM within seven calendar days of the notice's issuance date (September 28, 2021). The contract appears to be structured as a cooperative purchasing arrangement, which allows Clackamas County to leverage an existing municipal contract for acquiring specialized law enforcement vehicle equipment. The procurement process emphasizes efficiency by utilizing an established contract vehicle, potentially streamlining the acquisition of critical emergency vehicle infrastructure.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on vendor participation were explicitly outlined in the provided documentation. The contract will be executed through an existing cooperative agreement, which suggests potential flexibility in vendor engagement. The incumbent vendor, McLoughlin & Eardley dba Sirennet.com, is currently positioned as the primary supplier for the emergency lighting equipment. The procurement has a defined budget of $320,000.00 for the one-year contract period, with potential renewal options. While detailed evaluation criteria were not specified in the notice, the cooperative contract framework implies that initial vendor qualifications and pricing have been pre-negotiated through the City of Beaverton's competitive procurement process. The contract appears focused on standardizing emergency vehicle equipment for the Clackamas County Sheriff's Fleet, indicating a strategic approach to equipment procurement and potential future interoperability.
