The contractor is required to coordinate work with a scheduled power shut-down and maintain operations within an active school site, utilizing Tier 4F engines for heavy-duty equipment to meet CARB and U.S. EPA standards. The contract is awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with a performance period of 180 calendar days for substantial completion following the Notice to Proceed, anticipated around August 9, 2027. Key administrative requirements include the use of the Procore website for electronic reporting and the PlanetBids portal for bid submissions. The successful bidder must provide performance and payment bonds for 100% of the contract price, secure workers' compensation insurance, and adhere to California prevailing wage rates. A specific allowance of $50,000 is designated for unforeseen conditions. Bidders are evaluated on their capacity to perform the work promptly and their business integrity, with specific certification options available for various small and minority-owned business enterprises.
