Eligible bidders must possess a valid California contractor's license and have at least 10 years of experience in power transformer repairs within an electrical utility environment. The contract mandates strict compliance with California Labor Code prevailing wage requirements and Senate Bill 854, requiring registration with the State of California Department of Industrial Relations. No subcontracting is permitted. Awarded vendors must provide payment and performance bonds for 100 percent of the contract value if the bid exceeds 25,000 dollars, and must meet specific General Liability, Auto Liability, and Workers' Compensation insurance minimums. All work is warranted for at least one year from the date the equipment returns to service, with final payment authorized upon inspection and approval by the Project Manager.
