All work is governed by technical specifications aligned with Division 01 through 48 of the MasterFormat and must comply with applicable industry standards including NEMA, UL, ANSI, ASTM, and NFPA, along with the 2009 Green Book and NETA acceptance testing protocols. Deliverables require full operational systems, validated through on-site inspection and acceptance by the District’s Designated District Representative, with Substantial Completion defined as the point at which facilities are safely operable for intended use. The project is structured in three phases, with Phase 3 at D4 designated as an add-alternate that the District may exercise post-award through change orders.

Bidders must demonstrate technical compliance, financial stability, and past performance, with no weighted scoring or trade-off evaluation used. All proposals must be submitted electronically as PDFs via the District’s Procurement Supplier Portal by September 16, 2026, following the specific naming convention and format requirements.

Part 26, and a 30-day advance notice for insurance cancellation. Key personnel must be submitted prior to work commencement, and organizational conflicts of interest must be disclosed with restrictions on former District employees representing bidders for 12 months post-employment. The period of performance spans up to 540 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with all work performed at the Oakland, CA site.
