25YS0009_-_Rate_Sheet_Updated.xlsx

This is a Rate Sheet for water testing and analysis services issued by the California Department of Veterans Affairs (CalVets) under solicitation number 25YS0009. The document outlines a comprehensive water testing contract with multiple service categories including weekly bacteriological testing (5 potable water tests and 1 raw water test per week), quarterly trihalomethane/haloacetic acid testing, annual primary inorganic and secondary/general physical testing, and tri-annual testing for regulated volatile organic compounds (VOCs), synthetic organic compounds (SOCs), lead, and copper. The testing services are scheduled at specific intervals throughout 2026-2028, with estimated service quantities ranging from 1 to 100 tests depending on the specific parameter.

The rate sheet requires bidders to provide all-inclusive per-service rates for each testing category, with a mandatory submission requirement. The total contract value will be calculated by multiplying the estimated number of services by the proposed per-service rate. Notably, entering a zero dollar amount for any service indicates the vendor will perform that service at no cost, though failure to specify a rate may result in quote rejection. The document emphasizes that the State makes no guarantee about the actual volume of services required and reserves the right to adjust service needs. Rates quoted by the selected vendor will remain binding for the contract's duration, including potential term extensions through formal amendments.
