P&CC23-041-RFP Information Technology Contracted Services

Portland Community College (PCC) is soliciting competitive proposals for Information Technology Contracted Services through a Request for Proposal (RFP) numbered P&CC23-041-RFP. The procurement will cover information technology services to be performed across Washington, Yamhill, Columbia, Clackamas, and Multnomah Counties in Oregon. While specific technical deliverables are not detailed in the available documentation, the RFP seeks qualified proposers to provide comprehensive IT contracted services for the college's operational needs. The proposal submission deadline is November 30, 2023, at 2:00 PM Pacific Time, with no pre-proposal conference scheduled. This procurement is classified as a public works contract, which means it is subject to prevailing wage rate requirements. Proposers must submit their responses exclusively through Portland Community College's BidLocker platform, indicating a structured and digital submission process.

The procurement demonstrates a strong commitment to diversity and inclusion, explicitly encouraging proposals from minority-owned, women-owned, emerging small businesses, service-disabled veteran-owned, and disadvantaged business enterprises. While specific award values, budget ranges, or incumbent vendor details are not provided in the available documentation, the RFP suggests a competitive and open solicitation process. The geographic scope spanning multiple Oregon counties indicates a potentially significant contract opportunity for qualified IT service providers. The public works classification implies potential wage and labor standards that proposers must meet. The emphasis on diverse business participation suggests PCC is seeking to create opportunities for historically underrepresented business communities in the technology services sector.
