Tualatin Valley Water District (District) invites qualified licensed individuals or companies to submit proposals to provide on-call arborist services. Registration with online requires a correctly completed Confidentiality Agreement, which is available through the registration process. Following completion of the requested vendor information and upload of the Confidentiality Agreement, the vendor profile will be sent for a manual approval. Please allow one business day for your vendor profile to be approved. If it has not been approved within one business day, or if you have questions about this process, please contact bidsandproposals@tvwd.org. If a potential proposer obtains the RFP from Plan Center Northwest, the proposer is still responsible for registering with online to submit their proposal. Proposers are advised to ensure that their online District vendor profile is active and approved a minimum of three business days prior to the proposal Deadline to prevent any issues with submitting a proposal on time. Proposers will be notified via email when addenda are published. It is the responsibility of the proposer to obtain all addenda. If the RFP was downloaded from online , there will be a link for addenda provided in the automated email. District staff will discuss the requested outcomes of the work, guidelines for proposals, and will allow time for a question-and-answer session. The District intends to award up to two contracts for on-call arborist services. District reserves the right to cancel this RFP, reject any and all proposals not in compliance with prescribed public contracting procedures and requirements, including proposer responsibility under ORS 279C.375(3)(b), and may reject for good cause any and all proposals upon District's finding that it is in District's or the public's best interest to do so. District reserves the right to waive informalities and to negotiate contracts with the highest-scoring proposers. Proposers need not be licensed under ORS 468A.720 (regarding licensing of contractors on projects involving asbestos abatement). Proposers are responsible for all costs associated with preparing a proposal.
