NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD

INTEGRATED LIBRARY SYSTEM REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL

The Deschutes Public Library has completed its evaluation of the proposals submitted in response to Integrated Library System Request for Proposal. The RFP team has evaluated the proposals received using the evaluation criteria identified in the RFP, and DPL is hereby announcing its conditional contract awards to the following bidders:

•             Innovative Interfaces – Integrated Library System

•             Bibliocommons – Discovery Interface

The bidders listed above received the evaluation team’s highest rankings.  DPL will be contacting the aforementioned bidders soon to negotiate a contract.  As provided in the RFP, the Notice of Intent to Award is subject to execution of a written contract and, as a result, this Notice does NOT constitute the formation of a contract between DPL and the apparent successful vendor for an Integrated Library System.  DPL further reserves the right to cancel this Notice of Intent to Award at any time prior to the execution of a written contract.

This award decision is conditioned upon final approval by the Library Board and the successful negotiation of a contract.

This notice shall remain posted for five (5) business days through September 29, 2017, and no award will be made during this period.

If you have any questions, please contact Emily O’Neal, Technical Services Manager at (541) 617-7061, or by email at emilyo@deschuteslibrary.org.
