The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) is an unprecedented effort to jumpstart our economy, create or save millions of jobs, and put a down payment on addressing long-neglected challenges so our country can thrive in the 21st century. The Recovery and Reinvestment Act is an extraordinary response to a crisis unlike any since the Great Depression. The ARRA has the potential to provide more than $3.9 billion in economic assistance to Oregon, in important areas such as health care, education, energy efficiency and infrastructure.
Given the increase in funding to state and federal agencies and programs, there will be increased opportunities for vendors to do business with the state of Oregon and the federal government. Most state agencies post their procurement opportunities on the Oregon Procurement Information Network (ORPIN) and most federal agencies post their procurement opportunities on Federal Business Opportunities.
