Request for Proposals for On-Call Plumbing Maintenance Services for the City of Cerritos

The City of Cerritos is seeking qualified contractors to provide comprehensive on-call plumbing maintenance services across all city facilities under Request for Proposals No. 1573-26, with solicitation number 20260804002. The scope requires the contractor to supply all labor, tools, equipment, materials, and incidental services necessary for routine maintenance, emergency repairs, installations, and troubleshooting of plumbing systems. Work must be performed swiftly and efficiently in coordination with the City’s Public Works Department to ensure high-quality outcomes that comply with local codes and remain cost-effective. The contract is structured as an indefinite-duration service arrangement with no fixed term, as services will be activated on an as-needed basis. All performance must occur within Cerritos, California, specifically at the zip code 90703, and no alternative locations are permitted. A critical contractual requirement is the mandatory possession of a valid California Class C-36 Plumbing Contractor License, which was amended from the original Class C-10 requirement via Addendum No. 1 issued on August 5, 2026. Proposals must include a signed Bidder’s Certificate and explicit acknowledgment of this addendum to be considered responsive. The solicitation is open for responses until August 26, 2026, with no specified proposal format, page limits, or volume structure, though attachments must contain the required certifications and addendum acceptance. There is no listed contract value or pricing structure provided in the documentation, indicating that bidders will submit their own cost proposals without predefined line items or unit prices. The evaluation process and basis of award—whether based on lowest price, best value, or a combination—are not disclosed in the available materials, nor are specific evaluation criteria, weights, or risk ratings outlined. While the City retains the authority to inspect and accept work performed at the facilities in Cerritos, formal inspection guidelines, quality standards, or acceptance procedures are not detailed. There is no designated Contracting Officer, COR, COTR, or payment office information provided, and no accounting codes, invoicing methods, or remittance instructions are included. The procurement is not tied to any federal acquisition regulations with formal clause numbering or standard FAR language, reflecting its status as a municipal contract. Additionally, there is no mention of socioeconomic set-asides, small business status certifications, or unique entity identifiers required in federal procurements, further indicating the local nature of this acquisition.
