Sole-Source Notice

An Oregon state or local government agency is issuing a sole-source notification for Itron Managed Services related to Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) meters, with a notification due date of July 29, 2026. The agency has determined that only Itron possesses the specialized expertise, proprietary technology, and existing system integration capabilities necessary to provide these managed services.

The scope encompasses ongoing management, maintenance, monitoring, and support services for AMI meter infrastructure already deployed or planned for deployment within the agency's jurisdiction. The sole-source justification relies on Itron's unique capabilities that cannot be readily substituted by alternative sources and the existing system compatibility with Itron's AMI platform.

Contract terms, pricing structure, service level requirements, performance metrics, and contract duration are to be established through direct negotiation between the agency and Itron. The sole-source procurement method allows the agency to proceed directly with the vendor without conducting an open competitive bidding process.
