Sedcor Special Procurement

The City of Salem, acting through its Urban Renewal Agency, is seeking to secure economic development services for the fiscal year 2025-2026, with a dedicated contract budget of $210,000. The procurement is being managed in accordance with the City’s Public Contracting Rules and specifically uses the Alternative Source Selection Method. The services contracted under this agreement are intended to support the city’s ongoing economic initiatives and renewal efforts within Salem. All work will be performed within the boundaries of Salem, Oregon, during the specified fiscal year. There are no mandatory set-aside certifications or special eligibility requirements for potential bidders, making the opportunity broadly accessible. However, there is a formal protest protocol in place should any bidder wish to challenge the solicitation process, which requires submission of a written protest along with a $500 certified or cashier’s check within a seven-day period following public notice. This process ensures transparency and fair opportunity for all parties interested in providing services under this special procurement contract.
