Procurement Assistance Support Svcs - NASPO

The Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS) is soliciting responses for Procurement Assistance Support Services (PASS) under the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative purchasing program, with responses due July 22, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. This opportunity is limited to current, active holders of the State of Oregon PASS Price Agreement — a restrictive eligibility gate.

The scope spans ten PASS service categories: procurement strategy, independent government cost estimates, specifications review, market research, cost and pricing analysis, solicitation review and preparation, source selection, cost realism analysis, contract development, contract management, and vendor performance evaluation. Services will be delivered on a task-assignment basis throughout the period of performance; specific task definitions will be established after award.

DAS intends a single award. The contract term runs from July 1, 2026 (or as soon as practicable after award) through June 30, 2029. Respondents must propose hourly rates by role, capped at the PASS Price Agreement ceilings. Evaluation uses a 100-point scale across five scored criteria: Technical Approach and Work Plan (20 points), Qualifications and Experience (25 points), Key Personnel and Capacity (25 points), Cost-Hourly Rates by Role (20 points), and References (10 points). Conflict of interest and independence are evaluated on a mandatory pass/fail basis; respondents must disclose all actual or potential conflicts and affirm their ability to remain unbiased and refrain from bidding on solicitations they support under any resulting task engagement. Failure to satisfy this mandatory requirement renders the response non-responsive and excludes it from further consideration. An award is anticipated approximately one week following the response deadline.
