Backflow prevention services

The Department of Water Resources in California awarded a Non-Information Technology Services Personal Services contract to Stead Backflow Prevention on August 3, 2026. The contract encompasses backflow prevention services with a total contract value of $8,755.00 and extends through August 2, 2029, representing a three-year performance period. The line item specification identifies a single unit of backflow prevention services at a unit price of $8,755.00.

Stead Backflow Prevention will deliver backflow prevention services throughout the performance period under this personal services arrangement. The relatively modest contract value and single-unit specification suggest a specialized, discrete scope of work rather than an ongoing operational requirement. As a personal services contract, this engagement likely involves professional expertise in backflow prevention systems, which are critical components of water infrastructure used to prevent the reverse flow of water and potential contamination of public water supplies.
