Notice of Special Procurement of Radio Diagnostic Equipment *NOTICE ONLY*

The Oregon Department of Corrections (ODOC) is conducting a Special Procurement (SP-29100-00006137) for wireless radio diagnostic equipment through Marion County's procurement system. The procurement specifically targets the acquisition of Locus Diagnostics MX-3000, NX-200, NX-AFC-C equipment and associated extended warranties. This is a sole source procurement, with Locus Diagnostics, LLC identified as the exclusive manufacturer of the required technology. The contract term is set from March 14, 2023, to March 14, 2033, with a total estimated procurement value of $650,000. The procurement process includes a mandatory seven-calendar-day public notice period during which affected parties may submit written protests, with the initial notice posted on March 14, 2023, and responses due by March 21, 2023. Key deliverables include the master diagnostic units, remote receivers, AFC meter options, and corresponding extended warranty coverage. The sole source justification is predicated on Locus Diagnostics holding patents for the DiagnostX, MX, NX, and PX series over-the-air radio analyzers.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations were explicitly detailed in the procurement documents. The contract will be directly awarded to Locus Diagnostics, LLC as the sole manufacturer, with payment terms set at net 30 days. The total estimated contract value is $650,000, which covers the equipment, shipping, handling, and extended warranty provisions. No incumbent vendors were mentioned, and no existing infrastructure integration requirements were specified. The procurement appears to be a direct acquisition of specialized radio diagnostic equipment with a ten-year contract term. Pricing details include unit costs for the MX-3000 master unit, NX-200 remote receivers, NX-AFC-C AFC meter options, and associated warranty pricing. If no protests are received or sustained during the seven-day notice period, ODOC will proceed with issuing the contract to Locus Diagnostics, LLC.
