Sheriff’s Department Facility Renovation - JOC Electrical Services

The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department is seeking prequalified prime electrical contractors for Best Value Job Order Contracts (JOC) to support facility renovations, including detention and public safety facilities. This solicitation, identified as RSO-PMO-26-002-ELEC-ELECTRICAL SERVICES, focuses on small to medium maintenance and renovation work rather than new construction. Prequalified contractors will be eligible to bid on specific JOC contracts for one year following the issuance of the Notice of Prequalification. To be eligible, applicants must hold a B General Building Contractor license and demonstrate a track record of success in remodeling public agency facilities. The prequalification process is rigorous, requiring a comprehensive submittal via PlanetBids by September 30, 2026. Applicants must pass a series of mandatory requirements, including the submission of a prequalification questionnaire, verification and release of information forms, a statement of financial condition with a certified accountant's letter, a notarized surety statement, and proof of general liability insurance. Evaluation is based on a uniform scoring system, with a heavy emphasis on past performance; applicants must provide evidence of five completed projects of similar complexity from the last two years, at least two of which must be public works projects. Additionally, contractors must comply with California Labor Code requirements regarding prevailing wages, apprentice hiring, and the maintenance of an injury and illness prevention program.
