What Washington County is buying
Washington County’s Land Use and Transportation Operations Maintenance Division is seeking one supplier for steel sign posts and hardware. The contract is for three years, valued at $200,000, with renewal options for up to five years.
Order quantities will vary. Materials must be delivered to 1400 SW Walnut St. in Hillsboro within 10 business days after each order, and freight must be prepaid. The award will go to the lowest-priced supplier that quotes on every listed item.
Deadline and delivery terms
The quote deadline is November 12, 2026 at 5:00 PM ET. Submit your response through OpenGov before the deadline.
For each order, the materials must arrive within 10 business days. The County may cancel an order at no cost if it has not arrived by then. The contract will include escalation and de-escalation language in case a supplier cannot hold prices for the contract’s length.
Who this opportunity suits
This opportunity suits suppliers that can quote every listed steel sign post and hardware item, manage changing order quantities, and deliver to Hillsboro within the stated timeframe.
