About this opportunity

The Oregon State Marine Board (OSMB) is pursuing a sole source procurement for GPS survey equipment and related training services from Topcon Solutions Inc. The procurement involves replacing the agency's existing survey equipment, which was purchased in 2015 and is experiencing GPS component failures. The specific procurement includes new GPS equipment, Robotic Total Station (RTS) servicing, and customized training for 5 students over 5 days. A formal notice has been published inviting potential contractors to submit written protests if they believe they can provide equal or superior services. The sole source notice was posted on September 25, 2024, with a protest deadline of October 2, 2024. Interested parties must submit a detailed written protest referencing the OregonBuys Solicitation number, providing legal and factual grounds for the protest, describing potential harm, and specifying requested relief. The procurement aims to ensure compatibility with existing survey assets and avoid substantial replacement costs for the current RTS infrastructure.

The sole source procurement appears to have no specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. Topcon Solutions Inc. is identified as the sole Oregon supplier capable of meeting the agency's specific equipment and training requirements. The total procurement value is $44,212.50, covering the GPS equipment, RTS servicing, and five days of customized training. The procurement is limited to Topcon Solutions due to the need for direct compatibility with the existing survey equipment and data collection systems. No incumbent vendors beyond the current equipment provider are mentioned. The procurement strategy focuses on maintaining technological continuity and minimizing disruption to the Oregon State Marine Board's surveying capabilities. The sole source approach is justified by the specialized nature of the equipment and the potential cost savings from avoiding a complete system replacement.
