This document is a pre-bid conference sign-in sheet for Solano County's Asset Protection Project, which procures miscellaneous metals fabrication and installation services through a multi-prime competitive sealed bid process. The project encompasses flood protection infrastructure across multiple County facilities in Fairfield, California, including the Hall of Justice, Solano Justice Center, and related emergency services facilities located at Union Avenue, Clay Street, Delaware Street, and Texas Street properties. The scope of work is limited exclusively to miscellaneous metals work required to support barrier walls, berms, flood gates, and related flood protection measures. The mandatory pre-bid conference was scheduled for February 19, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at the County Administration Center, with sealed bids due by 2:00 p.m. on March 9, 2026, submitted through the Solano County OpenGov E-Procurement Portal. The contract requires substantial completion within 231 calendar days from the Notice to Proceed, with liquidated damages assessed at $2,000 per day for delays beyond the completion deadline.

Bidders must submit a bid bond equal to 10 percent of the total bid amount, non-collusion declarations, and worker's compensation certifications. The project is federally funded through FEMA and California Governor's Office of Emergency Services grants, requiring compliance with Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage determinations, federal procurement standards under Title 2 CFR 200, Byrd Anti-Lobbying provisions, and CEQA environmental requirements. The successful contractor must provide performance and payment bonds each equal to 100 percent of the contract amount, plus a one-year warranty bond equal to 10 percent of the final contract amount. Contractors must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation and commercial general liability insurance naming the County as additional insured. No specific set-asides for disadvantaged business enterprises are noted; however, federal procurement standards require affirmative steps to include such firms where applicable. The total contract value for the miscellaneous metals portion is not disclosed in available procurement documents.
