Sole Source - Trojan UV

The City of Salem, located in Marion County, Oregon, is pursuing a sole source procurement for Trojan UV System Spare Parts specifically for disinfection of treated effluent. The procurement is focused on obtaining replacement components directly from the original equipment manufacturer, Trojan UV Company. The total purchase amount is $9,713.60, with an anticipated award date of March 15, 2022. This procurement follows a public notice process that allows for potential protests from affected parties, which must be submitted in writing and accompanied by a $500 certified or cashier's check within seven days of the first public notice date of March 8, 2022. The sole source acquisition indicates that these specific spare parts are uniquely available from Trojan UV and are critical for maintaining the existing treatment system's operational integrity.

No specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations were identified in the available documentation. The procurement appears to be a targeted, limited purchase of specialized equipment components without broader competitive bidding. The sole source nature suggests that Trojan UV is the exclusive provider of these specific spare parts for the existing disinfection system. While the total purchase value is relatively modest at $9,713.60, the procurement demonstrates a targeted approach to maintaining critical municipal infrastructure. The document does not provide details about potential future procurements, multi-year contracts, or additional expansion opportunities beyond this specific spare parts acquisition for the treatment system.
