City of Portland repo man: We have a horse race
A while back we blogged about the City of Portland's invitation for proposals to become the city's new debt collection agency. At first, it looked as though the fix may have been in, and that the current contractor would get the award as a matter of course. But now it turns out that no fewer than eight firms have submitted bids:
United Adjustment CorporationThat last one, Active Credit, holds the current city contract. Any gamblers out there want to wager on whether it will prevail here?

UPDATE, 4:32 p.m.: Wow, that was quick. Just hours after posting the list of eight firms, the city announced that it had narrowed the field to three: Active Credit (surprise), Professional Credit from the 'Couv, and MSB Government Services in Texas.

In between TV shows maybe ol' Black Dog Duane “Dog” Chapman could do our repo work.
