New Police Substation Project, Cip No. 71139

The City of Tracy is seeking qualified firms to submit Statements of Qualifications for a Design-Build project to construct a new Police Substation, identified by CIP No. 71139, through a pre-qualification solicitation numbered RFQ #07-17-26. This is not a price-based procurement; rather, it is a qualifications-based selection process aimed at identifying competent design-build teams capable of delivering the project, with award decisions based solely on demonstrated professional expertise, experience, and capability to perform. All submissions must be made electronically via the PlanetBids Vendor Portal as a single consolidated zip file formatted for 8½ × 11 paper size, with no physical or alternative submission methods accepted. The deadline for submissions is August 13, 2026, at 3:00 p.m., and no late proposals will be considered. The project location is Tracy, California, with a zip code of 95376, and all work will be performed on-site at that location. The solicitation does not include federal contract clauses, pricing details, cost estimates, or established evaluation scoring systems. No formal FAR clauses, DFARS provisions, or mandatory certifications such as UEI, CAGE codes, socioeconomic status, or labor compliance statements are required at this stage, nor are there specified inspection criteria, quality standards, payment details, or contracting officer representatives identified in the documentation. The City of Tracy, through its Engineering Division and the primary point of contact, Bernardo Bustamante, P.E., will evaluate submissions based on an overall assessment of competence and professional qualifications, with no preference given to size or socioeconomic status, although Disadvantaged Business Enterprises are encouraged to participate. The process is strictly administrative at this stage, with future phases—such as proposal development, cost negotiation, and contract execution—reserved for firms selected during this initial qualification phase. All communication, questions, and addenda must be conducted through the PlanetBids portal, and no other forms of correspondence or documentation will be accepted.
