RFP for Aluminum Docks

The solicitation issued by the Oregon Department of Administrative Services (DAS), identified as S-10700-00009763 and posted on December 9, 2025, seeks proposals to establish one or more Statewide Price Agreements for the procurement, fabrication, delivery, and maintenance of aluminum boarding docks, associated materials, equipment, and services. These agreements will serve Authorized Purchasers across Oregon, primarily supporting recreational boating facility improvements under the Oregon State Marine Board. The scope includes multiple types of aluminum docks (Types A, B, C, and self-adjusting), transition plates in standard sizes, and comprehensive maintenance packages with critical wear components. All products and services must conform to detailed technical specifications and engineering drawings provided in the solicitation’s attachments, including rigorous quality standards for materials, welding, and manufacturing processes. The procurement process emphasizes a best-value award decision balancing technical merit and price, with evaluation factors weighted heavily toward experience, customer service and storage capacity, warranty and repair, and price. Proposers must demonstrate compliance with Oregon laws and policies, including Buy America requirements, nondiscrimination, pay equity, and outreach to disadvantaged business enterprises. The contract enforces strict key personnel provisions, security and confidentiality requirements, and pre-approval mandates for any subcontracting or personnel changes. Inspection rights are exercised both during manufacturing and upon delivery, with acceptance contingent on onsite approval by the Authorized Purchaser. While actual pricing and contract value are not specified in the solicitation, the agreements are intended for multiple years and provide flexibility for volume purchases statewide. Proposals must include comprehensive certifications, affidavits, and detailed cost and technical documents submitted electronically by the deadline of January 23, 2026. The administration of the contract will be managed by DAS Procurement Services with clear points of contact for inquiries and contract oversight.
