About this opportunity
The Oregon State Police (OSP) has initiated a special procurement process for a highly specialized law enforcement vehicle known as "The Rook", a NIJ Level IV Armored Caterpillar Multi-Terrain Loader package to be procured directly from Ring Power Corporation. This unique vehicle is custom-designed on a Caterpillar skid loader chassis, providing enhanced safety, security, versatility, and operational capabilities for high-risk SWAT team responses. The procurement covers one vehicle and related supplies and services, with a specific focus on the vehicle's advanced attachments and specialized operational advantages. The contract period is set from March 29, 2022, to June 30, 2022, with a total estimated procurement cost of $408,200. The special procurement is justified by Ring Power's status as the sole manufacturer and distributor of The Rook, with no equivalent alternative products available in the market. Public notice of this procurement was posted on OregonBuys on May 12, 2022, with a seven-day notice period ending May 19, 2022, during which potential vendors or interested parties may submit written protests to the State Chief Procurement Officer.
The procurement appears to be a direct, sole-source acquisition with no explicit set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises or specific vendor restrictions. No incumbent vendors are mentioned beyond Ring Power Corporation, and the document does not outline integration requirements with existing infrastructure or technology. The procurement is specifically for Marion County and the City of Salem jurisdictions, acting through the Oregon State Police. Potential protesters must submit a detailed written protest that includes legal and factual grounds, a description of potential harm, and requested relief. The total contract value is fixed at $408,200, representing a targeted, specialized procurement with a narrow focus on acquiring a unique law enforcement vehicle with specific tactical capabilities. The procurement process follows Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) and Oregon Administrative Rules, ensuring transparency and providing a structured mechanism for potential challenges to the special procurement method.
