<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Also, The DAS
State Procurement Office has re-released the WSCA Lodging RFQ. We hope to
add another 2,000 properties to the current list of 4,000 properties located
across the US. DAS SPO is also working on filling in some of the gaps in
Oregon. It is DAS SPO’s goal to eventually remove the in-state
qualification list. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>If you
haven’t used WSCA Lodging yet, I invite you to try it out and to notify
all of your travelers to use WSCA Lodging first when looking for hotels for in-state
and out of state travel. All of the properties listed have agreed
to offer at or below per-diem rates for State and ORCPP employees. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
