ODOT Small Contracting Program (SCP)
Small Contracting Program
The primary goal of the Small Contracting Program (SCP) is to provide a contracting mechanism for outreach to business entities. The SCP is welcomed by ODOT as a means to build effective working relationships with companies who can benefit from the knowledge and experience of working as prime on ODOT projects. As an adjunct to this goal ODOT staff will provide a mentor relationship with these companies, working with them to gain the skills required to be successful in contracting opportunities with ODOT.
 
The Small Contracting Program is made up of three divisions:  Architectural and Engineering and Related Services (A & E), Construction (C), and Other Services to include Non A & E Personal Services and Trade Services (OS).

The Oregon Procurement Information Network (ORPIN) is the system most state agencies and many local governments use to reach suppliers to procure goods and services. All of the SCP Solicitation Documents and Registration Forms are located under Notices in the ORPIN system.  It is recommended that you express interest (simply opening the Notice) in the SCP division applicable to your company so you will receive notification of any changes to the SCP Program.
