Fleet Division Garage Shop Infrastructure Update (Vehicle Lifts)

The City of Hayward has issued Request for Proposal 26-063 for the Fleet Division Garage Shop Infrastructure Update, specifically focusing on the replacement and upgrade of vehicle lifts. The project requires replacing existing in-ground heavy-duty lifts with 70,000-lb capacity systems and light-duty lifts with 10,000-lb electric-over-hydraulic systems across several stations, while outdoor heavy-duty stations will remain as-is. Proposals must be submitted via the City's eProcurement Portal by October 30, 2026, and must include a bid guarantee in the form of a certified cashier's check or bid bond, with the original mailed to the Purchasing Manager. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. This is a Public Works-Prevailing Wage project requiring DIR registration for qualifying contract amounts. The successful contractor must provide performance and payment bonds, as well as certificates of insurance. Compliance requirements include adherence to the California Labor Code, nondiscriminatory employment practices, and a certification of non-involvement in nuclear weapons development. All work must follow the U.S. Department of Commerce Economic Development Administration Standard Terms and Conditions for Construction Projects and City of Hayward standards. Contractors are further required to comply with California Administrative Code regarding the labeling and handling of hazardous materials and must designate an Equal Employment Opportunity Officer to oversee fair hiring practices.
