About this opportunity
Western Oregon University (WOU) has issued Request for Proposal (RFP) 2025-0293-OUR-LG for a five-year contract to provide and install laundry equipment in university housing facilities located in Multnomah County, Oregon. The procurement seeks professional, reasonably priced rented/leased washers and dryers to be installed across campus, including three residence halls, one apartment complex, and 56 family housing units. Proposed machines must be energy and water-efficient, high-capacity, and operate on a no coin/no card system. Vendors must have a minimum of five years of direct experience providing washer and dryer leases, with specific expertise in four-year college environments. The evaluation process will award points across multiple categories: service plan (15 points), inspection/reporting plan (10 points), educational plan (5 points), references (10 points), web/mobile monitoring system (10 points), and pricing (50 points), totaling 100 possible points. Key dates include a pre-proposal conference on Tuesday, April 15th, 2025, and proposal submissions due by Thursday, May 1st at 5:00 PM PST, with the contract term running from September 1st, 2025 through August 31st, 2030.
The RFP does not explicitly mention set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Contractors will be responsible for quarterly preventative maintenance, annual cleaning of exhaust systems, and providing prompt on-call service within 24 hours of equipment malfunction. The university is interested in proposals including a mixture of front-load and top-load washers, with specific machine specifications detailed in accompanying exhibits. While no incumbent vendor is identified, the RFP indicates a preference for contractors with established track records in higher education laundry service provisioning. Although a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive evaluation criteria suggest that pricing will be a significant factor, with 50 of 100 points allocated to cost considerations. The successful vendor will need to demonstrate not only competitive pricing but also robust service capabilities, technological integration through web/mobile monitoring systems, and a comprehensive approach to equipment maintenance and service.
