About this opportunity

The Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) is conducting a competitive bidding process for utility locating services in Region 1, with a specific solicitation seeking one qualified contractor to provide comprehensive underground utility location and mapping services. The procurement, identified as ITB # S-73000-00009344, requires the selected vendor to retrieve and complete locate requests through the Oregon Utility Notification Center (OUNC) One Call system, perform project-specific locates, conduct third-party damage investigations, and update ODOT's underground facility maps and diagrams. The contract is scheduled to commence on April 15, 2024, with an initial one-year term and potential extensions up to four additional one-year periods. Bidders must submit comprehensive proposals demonstrating their capability to perform utility locating services across multiple jurisdictions, including Multnomah County. The bid submission deadline is March 7, 2024, and ODOT will award the contract to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder utilizing fixed unit pricing, with hourly rates specified for normal business hours, after-hours, and emergency services.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged business enterprises, though ODOT emphasizes a commitment to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Four potential bidders have been identified in the preliminary bid tabulation: PNW Locating, Locates Down Under, Precision Locating, and Advanced Underground Utility Locating, with bid prices varying significantly across vendors. The contract will require successful bidders to comply with ODOT's Acceptable Use of State Information Systems policy, maintain relevant certifications, and adhere to Oregon's pay equity laws. While specific budget ranges are not explicitly detailed, the bid tabulation suggests total bid amounts ranging from $62.50 to $725.00, indicating potential variability in contract value. The procurement encompasses utility locating services across ODOT Region 1, which includes multiple counties, with the contractor expected to integrate with existing ODOT information systems and mapping infrastructure to provide comprehensive utility location services.
