The State of Oregon's Department of Administrative Services (DAS) has issued a Request for Quotation (RFQ) through Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) for the procurement of air compressors and an air dryer for Revenue and Print Plant Buildings. The solicitation, identified as OregonBuys Solicitation #S-10700-00013334, seeks to establish a single purchase order for one 10 HP air compressor, two 25 HP air compressors, and one high-pressure refrigerated air dryer. The equipment must meet specific technical specifications, including high-efficiency, tankless, variable speed, direct drive units with a 20:1 turn-down ratio and low sound enclosure for compressors, and a high-pressure refrigerated air dryer with 100-200 CFM capacity at 200 PSI. Quotes are due on April 14th, 2025, at 2:00 PM PST and must be submitted electronically through OregonBuys. The award will be made based on best value as determined by DAS State Procurement Services, with a focus on products that meet or exceed the specified requirements. Pricing must be held firm for 90 days, and the equipment is to be delivered to the DAS EAM Warehouse in Salem, Oregon by June 30th, 2025.

The solicitation does not explicitly mention specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The procurement is considered an intermediate procurement under Oregon Administrative Rules, and alternates or equivalent products will be considered, with the agency retaining sole discretion in determining product equivalence. Contractors will be required to provide insurance coverage as outlined in the document. While no specific incumbent vendors are mentioned, the technical specifications suggest a preference for high-performance, energy-efficient equipment. The document does not provide a specific budget range or award value, but the procurement appears to be for a targeted equipment replacement or upgrade project. The successful contractor will need to demonstrate the ability to meet the technical specifications, provide competitive pricing, and ensure timely delivery of the specified air compressors and air dryer to the DAS EAM Warehouse.
