Special Procurement - Publishing and Distribution Paper Supply

The Oregon Department of Administrative Services, Procurement Services (DAS PS) is conducting a Special Procurement on behalf of the Department of Administrative Services, Publishing and Distribution (DAS P&D) to amend an existing Price Agreement (PA) No. 1750 with Kelly Paper. The procurement specifically seeks to increase the not-to-exceed amount by $350,000, bringing the total contract value to $500,000 for Hammermill Fore Multi-Purpose White Cut Sheet Production Stock Paper. This procurement is designed to address an immediate paper supply need, particularly to fulfill a significant backlog of over 300,000 sheets for the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles. The original Price Agreement was awarded through RFQ No. DASPS-2307-21 and is currently set to expire on June 10, 2022. The procurement covers jurisdictions including Marion County and the City of Salem, with the primary objective of maintaining continuous paper supply for state printing and distribution services until a new competitive solicitation can be completed.

This special procurement does not appear to have specific set-aside designations or restrictions on responding organizations. The incumbent vendor is Kelly Paper, who will be receiving the contract amendment. The procurement is limited to paper supply and does not indicate integration requirements with existing technological infrastructure. The total contract value is $500,000, with an additional $350,000 being added to the existing agreement. Interested parties should note that this is not an open solicitation for proposals, but rather an amendment to an existing contract. Any affected person may submit a protest to the State Chief Procurement Officer within seven calendar days of the notice by mail or email. The procurement is specifically focused on addressing immediate paper supply needs for state agencies, with a clear emphasis on meeting the printing requirements of the Oregon Department of Motor Vehicles.
