Notice Only Not an Opportunity to Bid Shipping Management Software

The Oregon Department of Justice's Administrative Services Division Procurement Office is conducting an informal solicitation for shipping management software through a notice of competitive price quote gathering. This procurement is being managed under state procurement rules, with Ashley Buol serving as the primary procurement and contract specialist. The agency is seeking a minimum of three competitive price quotes for the software, though specific technical requirements, quantities, and detailed specifications are not explicitly outlined in the available documentation. The notice, posted on September 22, 2021, indicates a response deadline of September 29, 2021, and emphasizes that this is an informational posting rather than a formal bidding opportunity. While the precise deliverables and technical specifications of the desired shipping management software are not comprehensively detailed, the procurement appears focused on acquiring a technological solution to enhance shipping logistics and management processes within the Oregon Department of Justice.

No specific set-aside designations, vendor restrictions, or disadvantaged enterprise provisions are explicitly mentioned in the available documentation. The notice does not provide information about incumbent vendors, existing technological infrastructure, or potential integration requirements. Additionally, no budget range or potential award value is specified in the procurement notice. The lack of detailed information suggests this may be a preliminary market research or information-gathering phase prior to a more formal procurement process. Potential vendors interested in this opportunity would need to directly contact Ashley Buol to obtain more comprehensive details about the shipping management software requirements, evaluation criteria, and potential contract specifications.
