Public Notice of Intent to utilize a permissive cooperative agreement for Juniper Network services

Eugene School District 4J in Oregon is providing public notice of intent to award a permissive cooperative purchasing agreement with CDW Government for Juniper Networks hardware support and maintenance services through the State of Oregon IT Hard VAR Contract #5603, with comments due by 4 p.m. on July 9, 2026.

The procurement is authorized under ORS 279A.215(2)(a) and ORS 279B.060 and utilizes a cooperative purchasing vehicle rather than independent competitive procurement. The district determined the State of Oregon's cooperative process was substantially equivalent to competitive procurement requirements under ORS 279B.060.

The scope includes Juniper Care Services — 24/7 technical support, hardware replacement options, online support portal access, and advanced care features for Juniper Networks equipment. Service tiers range from basic Core to premium Same-Day Onsite support. Entitlements include unlimited 24/7 JTAC access, software releases, Juniper Support Portal access, hardware replacement services with multiple delivery timeframes (return-to-factory, next-day, same-day, or onsite technician dispatch), Juniper Support Insights AI-driven operational dashboards, and integration APIs for CRM and ticketing system compatibility.

The estimated contract value is $478,956 over a 60-month term. Interested parties may submit comments to purchasing@4j.lane.edu.
