This is a pre-bid conference presentation slide deck for the County of Tehama, California's Asset Protection Project, prepared for an electrical trade scope under a multi-prime procurement method. The project encompasses electrical work supporting flood protection infrastructure across eight County-owned properties located on Union Avenue, Clay Street, Delaware Street, and Texas Street, along with adjacent driveways and parking areas. The electrical scope includes power systems for submersible and axial flow pumps, motor control centers, panelboards, conduit and wiring systems, lighting installations, card reader systems for access gates, and building management system connections. The mandatory pre-bid conference is scheduled for February 19, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at the County Administration Center, with contractor attendance and signature on the roster required for bid eligibility. Sealed bids are due by 2:00 p.m. on March 9, 2026, via OpenGov. Construction is scheduled to commence March 2, 2026, with substantial completion required within 231 calendar days from Notice to Proceed and final completion within 30 additional calendar days. Liquidated damages of $2,000 per calendar day apply for delays beyond the completion deadline.

Qualified contractors must hold a current California contractor's license, be registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations, and comply with Davis-Bacon Act prevailing wage requirements and OSHA regulations. Bid security of 10 percent of the base bid amount is required, with performance and payment bonds each at 100 percent of the contract amount and a one-year warranty bond at 10 percent of the final contract amount due within five calendar days of award. The project is federally funded through OES/FEMA Hazard Mitigation Assistance grants, requiring compliance with Title 2 CFR 200.318-200.326 federal procurement standards and FEMA-required contractual clauses, with affirmative steps mandated to ensure small businesses and disadvantaged business enterprises are included in procurement opportunities. Work must integrate with previously approved Issued for Construction drawing sets, and all project personnel require mandatory background checks and security badging due to proximity to operational County facilities including the Justice Center, detention facility, emergency services, and cogeneration plant. No specific contract award value or budget range is disclosed in the solicitation documents.
