DW-26-06-RFQ Environmental Services

The Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) is seeking to establish a Multiple Award Task Order Contract (MATOC) for Environmental Services through a Request for Qualifications (RFQ DW-26-06-RFQ), with proposals due by September 1, 2026. This procurement aims to prequalify a pool of qualified environmental service providers to support construction, renovation, and rehabilitation projects across LACCD campuses, which are funded by public measures such as Proposition A and Measure J. The contract will have a minimum three-year term with options to extend up to five years, and all work will be executed through individual task orders issued under the MATOC framework. Proposals will be evaluated solely on technical qualifications, weighted heavily toward Project Staff Experience (500 points), followed by Project Experience (300 points), and Community Economic Development and Local Small Emerging Disabled Veteran (CED/LSEDV) Business Participation (50 points), for a total of 850 possible points; pricing is not a factor in the selection process, indicating a trade-off approach based on technical merit rather than lowest price. Offerors must submit a comprehensive proposal through the PlanetBids electronic portal, consisting of a five-page Consultant Proposal and six mandatory exhibits, including resumes, performance history, CED/LSEDV certifications, conflict of interest declarations, and financial representations. Key requirements include strict adherence to California licensing standards for all personnel, submission of professional liability and workers’ compensation insurance certificates, and full compliance with State of California wage determinations, ASTM E1527-05 and EPA All Appropriate Inquiry standards, and SAMHSA drug testing protocols. Contractors must also certify financial integrity with no disqualifying disclosures regarding financial impairment or lack of liquidity, and must obtain prior written approval before replacing any key personnel listed in exhibits. All subcontractors are held to the same standards as the prime contractor, with flow-down obligations for compliance, non-discrimination, and confidentiality. Performance will occur at varying project sites within zip codes 90001–91775, with acceptance and inspection conducted by LACCD’s Program Manager and Chief Facilities Executive at 770 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles. The total funding ceiling for all task orders under this MATOC is set at $13,500,000, with no individual pricing details provided, and invoices will be processed electronically through the District’s B2GNow system without reliance on federal platforms like WAWF.
