City Of Encinitas CUPCCAA Qualified Contractors' List Renewal

The City of Encinitas, California, is renewing its qualified contractors list under the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (CUPCCAA) for the period of October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027. This solicitation, identified by number 20261022034, is open to all licensed contractors who wish to be eligible for notices inviting informal bids for projects relevant to their specific area of classification. The process is governed by Section 22034 of the California Public Contract Code and is focused on establishing a database of qualified bidders rather than awarding a specific contract. To be included on the list, both new and returning contractors must register and complete the Prequalification section of their vendor profile through the PlanetBids online bid management system. It is the responsibility of the contractor to ensure their license and classification information remains current. While the list is active for the specified 2026-2027 period, submissions for inclusion are accepted at any time throughout the year. The primary point of contact for this process is the City's engineering department.
