RFQ-SO-1049-22 Inflatable Boat Replacement Tubes

Marion County is seeking quotes for replacement tubes for an inflatable boat through a Request for Quote (RFQ-SO-1049-22) issued by the Marion County Sheriff's Office in Salem, Oregon. The procurement involves purchasing one set of replacement tubes with specific requirements, including a particular brand, style, color, and custom logo. The RFQ requires offerors to provide replacement tubes that can be installed within 100 miles of Salem, with the county responsible for transporting the boat to and from the installation location. Quotes must be submitted by 2:00 PM on March 9, 2022, and vendors are expected to hold pricing firm for up to one year. The county will evaluate quotes to identify the "lowest responsible Offeror" based on the ability to deliver promptly and perform reliably, reserving the right to purchase from or enter into contracts with multiple vendors. Offerors must complete and return Attachment A: Offeror Representatives and Certifications form along with their quote and accept the Purchase Order Terms & Conditions outlined in Exhibit 1.

The procurement appears to have some restrictions and requirements for potential vendors. Offerors must certify they are resident proposers of Oregon, have not discriminated against minority, women, or emerging small business enterprises, and have not been debarred or suspended from government contracting. While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed, the documentation suggests a preference for local and responsible businesses. The RFQ does not specify a precise budget range or award value for the inflatable boat tube replacement. Vendors must provide complete business information, including name, address, contact details, taxpayer ID, and business designation. The solicitation indicates flexibility in vendor selection, potentially allowing multiple vendors to be awarded based on meeting the county's specific requirements and demonstrating competitive pricing and capabilities.
