Pre- Engineered and Pre-Fabricated Customer Service Unit for NARS Scales

The County of Sacramento Department of Waste Management and Recycling is soliciting bids under solicitation number 2025-RFB-0070 for the furnishing and delivery of a pre-engineered, pre-fabricated Customer Service Unit (CSU) to be installed at the North Area Recovery Station (NARS) located in North Highlands, California. The procurement covers all labor, materials, equipment, and incidental work required to manufacture and deliver the unit in strict accordance with detailed technical specifications, applicable California building codes, and regulatory permits. The CSU is a modular steel structure that must be fully assembled, wired, glazed, and painted as per project drawings and specifications prepared by a registered Professional Engineer. Delivery is required within 30 days of order, with inspection and acceptance conducted at the destination by the County. The contract allows for an initial 12-month term with possible extensions up to five and a half years, and billing will be on a lump sum basis without guaranteed minimum order quantities. The contract documents include extensive local contractual provisions and special requirements, such as mandatory insurance coverage with the County named as additional insured, compliance with California’s SB 1383 organic waste reporting, and bi-annual reporting to the Sacramento County Employees' Retirement System. Evaluation of bids will consider factors including suitability, quality, service, experience, life cycle cost, and delivery capability, using a best-value tradeoff approach rather than lowest price alone. The contract is governed by California law, with venue exclusive to Sacramento County. Proposals must be submitted electronically via the County’s bidding portal by January 22, 2026, with a question deadline of December 29, 2025. While the pricing format is lump sum, actual cost details are not disclosed in the solicitation documents. Contractors must submit certifications related to state and local business status, child support compliance, and wage reporting. The awarded contractor is responsible for ensuring that all project requirements, including structural and electrical standards, packaging, delivery, and warranty obligations, are met according to the specifications and contract terms.
