Sole Source - Shield 12 Display Portable Radar Speed Display Boards with Traffic Suite Data Transmis

The City of Salem, located in Marion County, Oregon, is pursuing a sole source procurement for Shield 12 Display Portable Radar Speed Display Boards with Traffic Suite Data Transmission from All Traffic Solutions, a vendor based in State College, Pennsylvania. This procurement involves the acquisition of specialized traffic monitoring equipment designed to capture and transmit traffic speed and data information. The public notice indicates that the city intends to directly award the contract to All Traffic Solutions without competitive bidding, citing unique vendor capabilities. The total anticipated contract value is $19,168, with an expected award date of July 28, 2022. Potential vendors or interested parties have seven days from the first public notice date (July 21, 2022) to submit a written protest to the City Manager's office, which must include specific grounds, supporting evidence, potential harm description, and requested relief.

The sole source procurement is permitted under the City of Salem's adopted Public Contracting Rules, and any protest must be accompanied by a $500 certified or cashier's check to cover processing costs. No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on respondent types were explicitly mentioned in the documentation. The procurement appears focused on acquiring specific technological infrastructure for traffic monitoring, with All Traffic Solutions being the identified exclusive vendor for the required equipment. While no incumbent vendor details were provided, the document suggests this is a targeted acquisition of specialized radar speed display boards with integrated data transmission capabilities. The relatively modest contract value of $19,168 indicates this is a focused, specific procurement aimed at enhancing traffic monitoring infrastructure for the city and potentially Marion County.
