RFP-Revegetation Management Services

Clean Water Services is seeking revegetation management services through a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) process, with the intent to award multiple three-year price agreements to qualified firms or individuals. The procurement targets comprehensive revegetation services, though specific technical details are not fully elaborated in the advertisement. Proposals must be electronically submitted via Equity Hub's Bid Locker by March 27, 2026, at 4:00 p.m. local time, with strict adherence to submission requirements. Contractors are required to register with Bid Locker prior to submission at no cost, and must proactively monitor the Bid Locker website for any amendments, addenda, or updates to the solicitation. Technical assistance is available through Marcela Erceg, Procurement Specialist, who can be reached at (503) 681-3687 for additional information or clarifications. The solicitation emphasizes that late proposals submitted by fax, mail, or email will be automatically disqualified, and proposals will not be publicly opened or read aloud.

The RFP does not specify detailed set-aside categories, disadvantaged business enterprise requirements, or precise funding amounts within the advertisement. Clean Water Services retains significant discretionary authority, reserving the right to reject any non-compliant proposal or cancel the solicitation entirely if deemed in the public interest. While specific award values are not disclosed, the multi-year price agreement structure suggests potential for ongoing, substantive contract opportunities. No incumbent vendors or existing technology integration requirements are explicitly mentioned in the available documentation. Notably, the solicitation indicates that contractors need not be licensed under ORS 468A.720 regarding asbestos abatement, which may broaden the pool of potential respondents. The procurement appears designed to establish a qualified vendor pool for revegetation management services, with flexibility for the District to engage multiple contractors based on their proposal evaluations.
