Bidders must provide a bid security of at least 10% of the proposal amount and are required to provide performance and payment bonds totaling 100% of the contract price. Compliance requirements include adhering to California prevailing wage rates, maintaining a 3% Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise participation goal, and executing a Drug Free Workplace Certificate. Contractors must also provide Workers' Compensation Insurance per California Labor Code and submit three years of EMR and OSHA log data. Work must be performed according to a critical path construction schedule and meet ASTM testing standards, with the District providing independent testing and inspection services.
