This is a public notice from the Oregon Finance Dept – Purchasing Division regarding an intended purchase of Dell VxRail equipment, software, and support using an interstate cooperative. The notice indicates the purchase value exceeds $250,000 and is not written as a competitive solicitation in the brief provided. The response deadline shown is 2023-05-17 17:00 UTC, implying any objections/interest would have needed to be raised by then.
