Unit Price Construction: Districtwide Marquee Sign and Scoreboard Installation, Repair, and Replacement

The Fontana Unified School District is soliciting bids for a unit price construction contract for the installation, repair, and replacement of electronic marquee signs and athletic scoreboards across its campuses and administrative facilities. The primary objective is to establish consistent equipment standards using high-quality, durable signs manufactured and assembled in the United States, with a strict prohibition on components manufactured in China. The contract includes a construction cost estimate of 1,300,000.00 dollars and features an initial one-year term with up to four optional one-year renewals. Key requirements include a 48-hour warranty response commitment and the maintenance of a California-based service facility with available technicians and parts. Award decisions are based on the lowest responsible and responsive bidder, calculated by the sum of the base bid and a ten percent unidentified conditions allowance. Bidders must provide comprehensive unit pricing for various marquee sizes and configurations, ranging from 3ft x 6ft to 6ft x 12ft, in freestanding single, double, and wall-mounted options. Compliance with California building and electrical codes, the Federal Davis-Bacon Act, and prevailing wage laws is mandatory. Furthermore, the contractor must provide 100 percent performance and payment bonds issued by a California admitted surety and undergo criminal background checks for all employees to ensure student safety.
