This solicitation document is issued by the New Fairfield Board of Education in Connecticut for On-Call General Trades and Emergency Services. The Board seeks qualifications and fee proposals from qualified contractors to provide general trades services and emergency response capabilities on an as-needed basis. The solicitation requests detailed information about contractor qualifications, experience, insurance requirements, and proposed fee structures for various trade services including plumbing, electrical, HVAC, carpentry, and emergency repairs. Prospective bidders must submit responses by the stated deadline, with evaluation based on qualifications, past performance, availability for emergency calls, and proposed pricing. The contract will be awarded to qualified vendors who can provide on-call services throughout the fiscal year with the flexibility to handle both scheduled maintenance and urgent emergency repairs across the school district's facilities.

The contract operates as an on-call arrangement with compensation based on submitted fee schedules or hourly rates for services rendered. Vendors selected for award will be required to maintain appropriate licensing, bonding, and insurance coverage to protect the district. The district seeks multiple qualified contractors across different trade categories to ensure adequate coverage and competitive pricing for both routine and emergency work. This arrangement allows the Board of Education to access vetted, pre-qualified trades professionals without requiring a long-term exclusive relationship, enabling rapid response to facility needs while maintaining fiscal responsibility through competitive fee proposals.
