Provision of traffic counting services

Marion County Public Works Department is seeking written quotes for traffic counting services through a Request for Quote (RFQ) process covering multiple regions across Oregon. The procurement seeks vendors to provide comprehensive traffic data collection, specifically volume and classification counts at approximately 400 traffic count locations and 466 traffic classification locations over a three-year contract period, with potential extension up to five years. Vendors must supply trained personnel and necessary equipment to collect traffic data and provide detailed reports within 10 business days of completing services at each location. The RFQ requires vendors to demonstrate capability in collecting accurate traffic data across various roadway sites, with specific technical requirements detailed in attached Excel spreadsheets documenting locations in Regions 1, 3, and 4. The quote submission deadline is May 3, 2022, at 3:00 PM, with Marion County reserving the right to enter into contracts with multiple vendors based on price and ability to meet county requirements. Evaluation will likely focus on pricing, technical competence, and capacity to complete the comprehensive traffic data collection scope.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises were explicitly mentioned in the procurement documents. The quote results document reveals two vendors submitted quotes for these services, with pricing ranging from $106,910.00 to $164,841.34 for the entire project. Per-unit pricing varies between vendors, with one quoting $110.00 per traffic count and $135.00 per traffic classification, while the other quoted $149.99 per traffic count and $224.99 per traffic classification. The total estimated contract value appears to be approximately $164,841, though Marion County has structured the RFQ to potentially engage multiple vendors. No incumbent vendor information was provided, and no specific details were outlined regarding existing technological infrastructure or integration requirements. The contract represents a significant opportunity for traffic data collection services across Marion County and surrounding regions in Oregon, with potential for multi-year engagement and expansion.
