Sole Source - Annual Monthly Home Owners Association (HOA) Fees

The City of Salem, located in Marion County, Oregon, has issued a Sole Source Public Notice for the procurement of Annual Monthly Home Owners Association (HOA) Fees from the 295 Church Street Condo Association. This procurement is specifically a sole source acquisition, indicating no competitive bidding process will occur. The total procurement value is $50,000, with an anticipated award date of January 17, 2024. The procurement process includes a specific protest mechanism that allows affected parties to submit written objections within seven days of the first public notice. Protesters must accompany their protest with a $500 certified or cashier's check to cover processing costs, and their submission must comprehensively outline legal and factual grounds, provide supporting evidence, describe potential harm, and specify the requested relief.

The procurement appears to be restricted to a specific vendor (295 Church Street Condo Association) without competitive solicitation, which suggests no broad organizational participation is anticipated. No specific set-aside designations for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the documentation. The sole source nature of the procurement implies that the 295 Church Street Condo Association is the incumbent and exclusive provider for these HOA fees. The procurement covers annual monthly HOA fees, with a fixed budget of $50,000, indicating a direct, non-competitive acquisition process. While detailed integration requirements are not specified, the procurement seems focused on a straightforward financial transaction for predetermined HOA services.
