About this file

This is a Procurement Plan memorandum from the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) dated June 2, 2026, establishing the framework for Invitation for Bid (IFB) 250407 for backflow prevention devices and fire hydrant services. The procurement utilizes an IFB approach, with award based on the lowest responsive and responsible bidder. The contract is structured as a time and expense agreement with firm-fixed hourly rates for services provided on an as-needed basis. The initial contract term is three years, with option terms available; however, a notation on the document indicates a discrepancy regarding renewal options, with the requisition specifying two one-year option terms rather than the two two-year option terms listed in the main procurement plan document.

The initial contract budget is $135,000.00 for the three-year term, with an additional $90,000.00 budgeted for the first option term. This is designated as a prevailing wage contract, and an independent cost estimate has been received. Funding is derived from Local Measure M sources, with Federal CMAQ funding also noted as a potential source. The procurement plan requires concurrence from both the Contracts Analyst and the CAMM Section Supervisor, with evaluation criteria weighted entirely on cost (100%) given the nature of the IFB selection process. The requisition number assigned is R000695.
