Project #25001-8 On Demand Plumbing Repair Services

The Housing Authority of Clackamas County (HACC) in Oregon is seeking on-demand plumbing repair services through Project #25001-8, a solicitation for hourly-rated plumbing work to be performed across residential units and administrative facilities throughout Clackamas County. The procurement requires contractors to provide comprehensive plumbing services from Estacada to Wilsonville, with the ability to complete all services in a single trip and offer 24-hour emergency service capabilities. Bid submissions were due on January 7, 2026, at 2:00 p.m., with a contract period spanning from January 19, 2026, to January 19, 2028. Contractors must quote hourly rates that remain valid for 730 days and specify material markup percentages, with work typically performed during normal business hours (Monday through Friday, 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.). Routine work must be completed within five calendar days, while urgent/emergency work requires a 24-hour turnaround, with all work authorized through written Purchase Orders. Bidders must demonstrate compliance with HUD prevailing wage rates, with plumbers required to be paid a minimum of $32.14 per hour plus $16.12 in fringe benefits for routine maintenance work.

Contractors must be licensed by the Oregon Construction Contractors Board and maintain specific insurance requirements, including public works bonds, Workers' Compensation, and liability coverage with minimum $1,000,000 per occurrence limits. The contract mandates maintaining general and automobile liability coverage for five years post-completion, with A.M. Best ratings of at least B+:VI. While no minimum workload is guaranteed, HACC reserves the right to reject any or all bids. The procurement is subject to Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS), Davis-Bacon Act provisions, and HUD procurement requirements, necessitating mandatory payroll documentation and compliance verification. Potential bidders should note that the contract involves complex regulatory compliance, including prevailing wage regulations and insurance stipulations. The solicitation appears to be an open competitive bid without specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises, allowing qualified plumbing service providers to submit proposals. Although no specific budget range is detailed, the contract's two-year duration and countywide scope suggest a potentially significant procurement opportunity for qualified plumbing service providers.
