Pierce County intends to make a directly negotiated purchase based on a sole source procurement exemption. An entity who believes they are capable of meeting the need and the requirements identified in this public notice must submit a capability statement before the submission deadline.

Chapter 2.106 of the Pierce County Code authorizes the County to purchase property or services by direct negotiation if the purchase is clearly and legitimately limited to a single source of supply, involves special facilities, or involves special market conditions. This is not a competitive solicitation, and the County is not accepting proposals or bids. Vendors may submit capability statements by following the process described in this public notice.
