Notice Special Procurement Amendment 3 SP-603-12

The State of Oregon's Department of Administrative Services (DAS), State Procurement Services (SPS), is conducting a Special Procurement (SP-603-12) to extend and amend existing Master Services Agreements (MSAs) for computing and networking supplies and services. The procurement targets computer system hardware, equipment, supplies, materials, and incidental services, including installation, configuration, and training for mainframe and midrange computing, storage, and networking systems. Four primary vendors are involved in this amendment: CDW Government LLC, Hitachi Vantara Corporation, Dell Marketing L.P., and Presidio. The current amendment extends the MSAs' term from May 13, 2025, to May 31, 2028, with the primary objective of maintaining continuous access to critical IT infrastructure while DAS completes a new procurement process. The total estimated cost for this amendment period is $10,000,000, bringing the cumulative total to $30,000,000. SPS anticipates issuing a new Request for Proposals (RFP) on OregonBuys in Q1 2027, with the goal of awarding one or more MSAs by May 31, 2028.

The procurement supports technology infrastructure for eleven major Oregon state agencies and emphasizes promoting competition and supporting socio-economic business inclusion programs. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the procurement demonstrates a commitment to flexible technology acquisition that can adapt to rapidly changing technological needs. The existing vendors (CDW Government LLC, Hitachi Vantara Corporation, Dell Marketing L.P., and Presidio) suggest a pre-established vendor pool with proven capabilities in supporting state IT infrastructure. The procurement aims to enable quick access to critical supplies and services for the state's Data Center Services, ensuring business continuity and technological adaptability. The budget range for the entire procurement cycle is estimated at $30,000,000, with the current amendment covering $10,000,000. Potential respondents should be prepared to provide comprehensive computing and networking solutions that can integrate with existing state technology infrastructure and support the dynamic technological requirements of Oregon's government agencies.
