Cable Wiring

Charles County Public Schools is soliciting sealed bids for a task order contract to provide on-call, as-needed low-voltage cabling services across its facilities in Maryland. The scope of work includes the installation, repair, relocation, and expansion of telecommunications cabling, specifically requiring the use of solid copper Category 6A cabling and OM4 multimode fiber in compliance with ANSI/TIA standards and local codes. Contractors are responsible for providing all labor, materials, and equipment, including the installation of surge protection and 22/4 stranded shielded speaker cables. Key deliverables include conducting pre-job surveys, providing written estimates, and ensuring all cables are uniquely identified with permanent, machine-printed labels following the CCPS naming convention. The contract is awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on the grand total from the pricing tables in Attachment III-B. The term is for one year with four optional one-year renewals, and prices must remain firm for the first year. Bidders must provide unit pricing for materials and hourly labor rates, and the successful vendor may be required to provide performance and payment bonds covering 100 percent of the contract or purchase order value. Submissions must be delivered as a signed original and a digital copy on a USB drive by October 27, 2026. Payment terms are net 30 days via ACH or VEPS, and all work is subject to final inspection and acceptance by CCPS prior to payment.
