The contractor is responsible for providing all labor, materials, equipment, and services, including traffic control, safety measures, stormwater management, and site security, with no additional compensation for compliance-related activities. The contract is awarded on a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable basis, where bidders must be fully responsive and responsible, submitting a signed bid, bid bond, complete unit pricing, and all required certifications. Mandatory certifications include DIR contractor registration, prevailing wage compliance with biweekly certified payroll submissions, worker’s compensation insurance, IRCA employment eligibility, and adherence to the California False Claims Act. The contractor must also commit to DBE participation goals and provide a guarantee agreement, affidavit of payment, certification of adequate contract amount, and affidavit of disposal of equipment. Performance is measured in working days starting from the Notice to Proceed, with a 120-day completion target noted as an example.
