This Notice to Contractors is for the award of a single Job Order Contract (JOC), which is a competitively bid, firm fixed-priced, indefinite quantity contract.

The University issues to the Contractor discrete, fixed-price task or job orders, as needed, under the contract. Under the JOC concept, the Contractor furnishes all management, documentation, labor, materials, and equipment needed to perform the work.

Note: DIR will assess a penalty on any public works contractor who allows its registration to lapse. DIR will also assess a penalty on any contractor who subcontracts to any contractor who is not registered with the DIR for each day the subcontractor is not registered. For more information review the DIR public works registration requirements at https://www.dir.ca.gov/Public- Works/PublicWorks.html.

The following applies to this Contract:

• A contractor will not be in violation for working on a private Project that is later determined to be public work;

• The contractor shall check the public works registration for all subcontractors that is proposes to list to ensure that each subcontractor is registered to bid public works projects with the DIR.;

• An unregistered contractor or subcontractor can be replaced with one who is registered;

• A contract with an unregistered contractor or subcontractor is subject to cancellation but is not void as to past work.

2.02 Prequalification

The Trustees shall issue proposal packages only to Bidders who have prequalified with the Trustees (Public Contract Code section 10764). To prequalify, all bidders must file their prequalification applications online, and the application includes bidders’ responses to a standard questionnaire, a statement of financial condition, and previous experience in performing public works, all in accordance with the instructions contained in the Notice to Contractors.

Bidders shall go to CPDC’s website: http://www.calstate.edu/contractor-prequalification under ‘Contractor Prequalification’ and login into the database using the link provided (PlanetBids).

Bidders shall verify the information contained in the prequalification application under oath and https://www.dir.ca.gov/Public-Works/PublicWorks.html https://www.dir.ca.gov/Public-Works/PublicWorks.html http://www.calstate.edu/contractor-prequalification cgc_joc.pdf, rev. 03/26 submit the completed prequalification application online at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for opening bids. The Trustees’ Prequalification Administrator must approve Bidders not less than one (1) Business Day prior to the date set for opening bids.

The Trustees’ Prequalification Administrator will review the Bidder’s statement of experience and financial condition upon receipt of a complete application, check Bidder’s references, and notify the Bidder of the rating established based on the information contained in the application.

The Bidder’s assigned prequalification rating will be the maximum amount of a contract or contracts that the Bidder may undertake with the Trustees. Bidder may request an increase in rating from the Prequalification Administrator. The request shall be in writing and specify the reason(s) for increase. The Trustees’ Prequalification Administrator will review Bidder’s request, check new references submitted and notify Bidder of the resulting decision. The Prequalification Administrator’s decision is final.

The Trustees shall disregard any bid received either from a Bidder that is not currently prequalified, or from a Bidder that is prequalified, but the rating is not high enough to accommodate its bid. Although this prequalification permits participation in the bidding of the project, it does not mean that the Bidder satisfies the requirements of being a “responsible” Bidder. This determination occurs later in the process (reference Article 02.09, Failure to be a Responsible Bidder).

a. Joint Ventures

If two or more prospective Bidders desire to bid as a joint venture on a single project, they must file an affidavit of joint venture form 703.12 with the Trustees at least five (5) Days prior to the date and time set for opening bids on a form obtained from the Trustees. The affidavit of joint venture is valid only for the specific project for which it is filed. Each party to the joint venture must be prequalified, as provided herein, at least one (1) Business Day before the time set for opening bids.

If the Trustees announce that the joint venture is the successful bidder, the joint venture shall, prior to the Trustees’ award of the Contract:

• obtain the joint venture license (Business and Professions Code sections 7029 and 7029.1), and

• register the joint venture with the Department of Industrial Relations.

b. Supplementary Prequalification

In addition to the prequalification requirements in Article 02.02 above, the Trustees require a supplementary prequalification of the general contractors bidding on this Contract. Bidders must complete and submit the supplementary prequalification application via PlanetBids at least ten (10) business days before the bid opening. The application must be approved at least one (1) business day prior to the bid opening date.

Bidders will be notified of their status in writing, and the decision of the Trustees’ Prequalification Administrator shall be final.

c. Specialty Contractor Self-Performance Requirement cgc_joc.pdf, rev. 03/26

Bidders holding a specialty license (for example, C-20 Mechanical, C-39 Roofing, C-12 Paving, C-22 Asbestos Abatement, or similar specialty classifications) shall demonstrate the ability to self-perform not less than fifty-one percent (51 %) of the total Work under the Contract. The percentage shall be calculated based on the combined value of direct labor and materials for each Job Order. This requirement applies only to specialty trade Job Order Contracts and is intended to ensure that the Contractor possesses the experience, personnel, and resources to execute the majority of the Work with its own forces. Failure to demonstrate this capability shall render the bid non-responsive.

d. Proof of Prequalification

Bidders shall include a current CSU CPDC prequalification letter with their bid proposal.

Failure to include this document shall render the bid non-responsive.

2.03 Necessity for Careful Examination of Site and Contract Documents

Prospective bidders should visit the University campus for which this Job Order Contract is applicable to familiarize themselves with the general state of the facilities, any special conditions that they may encounter (such as possible isolated locales), or typical weather conditions that may affect Work during certain seasons. Some campuses are not located near large metropolitan areas; hence, the availability of subcontractors may be a bidding concern.

Generally, prospective bidders shall examine the Contract Documents carefully and, before bidding, shall make a written request to the University for clarification of any ambiguity, or correction of any inconsistency or error in the documents. Requests for such clarification must be received at least ten (10) Days before the date fixed for the opening of the bid.

Only the University official, as identified in the Notice to Contractors, is authorized to answer questions or prepare addenda relative to the Project. Information obtained verbally from any source has no contractual authority, may not be relied upon, and shall have no standing in any event that may occur.
