About this file

This is a Bid Notice and Project Manual for a roof replacement project issued by the California Department of General Services (DGS) Real Estate Services Division for the Department of Veterans Affairs at the Veterans Home of California in Yountville, Napa County. The project involves replacing roofing systems on five existing buildings: the Armistice Chapel (approximately 2,100 square feet), Lincoln Hall (approximately 24,000-25,000 square feet), Washington Hall (approximately 24,000-25,000 square feet), Wilson Hall (approximately 24,000-25,000 square feet, with hazardous materials abatement required), and Lincoln Theatre (approximately 30,000 square feet). Work includes removing existing roofing systems and installing new materials—fire-retardant treated wood shakes for the chapel with copper flashing and gutters; reusable existing clay tiles with new tiles, underlayment, and matching gutters for the three residential halls; and a Class A single-ply membrane system with insulation, roof drains, fixed ladders, hatches, fall protection, and rooftop-mounted HVAC ducts for the theatre. A mandatory pre-bid site inspection is required on September 9, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at the Veterans Home Administration Building. Sealed bids must be received by 2:00 p.m. on September 23, 2026, with public bid opening on September 24, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. The contract is awarded on a lump sum basis to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.

Bidders must hold a California Contractors' State License Classification B and submit bids with bidder's security equal to at least 10 percent of the bid amount. The project requires compliance with prevailing wage rates determined by the Department of Industrial Relations as of February 2026, and contractors must register with the Department of Industrial Relations prior to bidding. A mandatory Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation requirement of 3 percent is established, with a DVBE Incentive program offering up to 5 percent price reduction for bids exceeding the 3 percent participation threshold. A 5 percent small business preference is available for certified small businesses, and non-small businesses committing to subcontract at least 25 percent to certified small businesses may also qualify for the preference. Performance and payment bonds, each in the amount of 100 percent of the contract price, are required upon award. The project is subject to California labor compliance monitoring and enforcement, asbestos abatement and hazardous substance removal certification requirements, and compliance with Executive Order N-6-22 regarding Russian sanctions. Contract documents, including detailed drawings and specifications across six project manuals (one for each building), are available for download through the Cal eProcure website. Award of the contract is contingent upon availability of funds through the State's normal budget process.

For the similarly built 2-story Lincoln Hall, Washington Hall, Wilson Hall, with approximate 24,000sf to 25,000sf of roof area each, the work involves removing, cleaning, and installing reusable existing clay tiles along with new clay tiles, new underlayment, new flashings, and new matching gutter systems, to preserve historical authenticity. A

RESDMSTR: 03/01/2025 00 11 00 - 2 000000000012704

portion of the roof Wilson Hall is known to contain hazardous materials requiring abatement as part of the work. For the 3-story Lincoln Theatre, with an approximate 30,000sf of roof area, the work includes the removal of the existing roof system and the installation of new Class A single-ply membrane, tapered insulation, roof drain dome, fixed ladders, roof hatch with safety railing, fall protection, and new rooftop mounted HVAC duct installation.

License: Contractors' State License Classification required to bid Project is B.

Certificate of Reported Compliance (CRC) – Fleet Vehicles: As a condition of Contract award, prior to Contract execution, Contractor shall submit copies of the valid CRCs for any fleet retained by the Contractor or any listed Subcontractor, for which any vehicles subject to the California Air Resources Board In-Use Off-Road Diesel Fueled Fleet Regulations, Section 2449(i), Title 12, California Code of Regulations, are used in the completion of the work included in the Contract.

More information on the In-Use Off-Road Diesel-Fueled Fleets Regulation can be found at the following link: https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/our-work/programs/use-road-diesel-fueled-fleets-regulation

Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI): The State of California seeks to realize the potential benefits of GenAI, through the development and deployment of GenAI tools, while balancing the risks of these new technologies.

Bidder must notify the State in writing if it: (1) intends to provide GenAI as a deliverable to the State; or (2), intends to utilize GenAI, including GenAI from third parties, to complete all or a portion of any deliverable that materially impacts: (i) functionality of a State system, (ii) risk to the State, or (iii) Contract performance. For avoidance of doubt, the term “materially impacts” shall have the meaning set forth in State Administrative Manual (SAM) § 4986.2 Definitions for GenAI.

Failure to report GenAI to the State may result in disqualification. The State reserves the right to seek any and all relief to which it may be entitled to as a result of such non-disclosure.

Upon notification by a Bidder of GenAI as required, the State reserves the right to incorporate GenAI Special Provisions into the final contract or reject bids/offers that present an unacceptable level of risk to the State.

Government Code § 11549.64 defines “Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI)” as an artificial intelligence system that can generate derived synthetic content, including text, images, video, and audio that emulates the structure and characteristics of the system’s training data.

Availability of Funds: Award of this contract is subject to the availability of funds through the State’s normal budget process and/or transfer of funds to the Department of General Services through the Architecture Revolving Fund.

Pre-bid Site Inspection: Bids will only be accepted from those Contractors having attended the MANDATORY pre-bid site inspection tour on September 9, 2026, at 10:00 A.M., at which time representatives of the State and prospective bidders shall meet at the Administration Building located at Veterans Home of California-Yountville, 100 California Drive, Yountville, CA. The State’s requirements for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation and other Contract requirements will be presented. Prime Contractors are encouraged to have their Key Administrator and DVBE office coordinator attend to receive this information and to have their questions answered. Attendance for the entire inspection is required in order for bidders to be eligible to submit a bid.

Executive Order N-6-22: The Bidder must be advised of Executive Order N-6-22 Russia Sanctions. On March 4, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom issued Executive Order (EO) N-6-22 regarding Economic Sanctions against Russia and Russian entities and individuals. “Economic Sanctions” refers to sanctions imposed by the U.S. government in response to Russia’s actions in Ukraine, as well as any sanctions imposed under state law. By submitting a bid, Bidder represents that

RESDMSTR: 03/01/2025 00 11 00 - 3 000000000012704

it is not a target of Economic Sanctions. Should the State determine Bidder is a target of Economic Sanctions or is conducting prohibited transactions with sanctioned individuals or entities, that shall be grounds for rejection of the Bidder’s bid any time prior to contract execution, or, if determined after contract execution, shall be grounds for termination by the State.
