Exhibit_1_-_Time_&_Materials_(T&M)_Work_Authorization_Form.pdf

This is a Time & Materials (T&M) Work Authorization Form used by the County of Orange, OC Community Resources, for the Mile Square Northeast Area Smart Irrigation Controller Upgrade project. The form documents field work related to the installation and upgrade of smart irrigation controllers at Mile Square Regional Park in Fountain Valley, California. The authorized work includes re-wiring with dedicated low-voltage wire runs (splitting wires is prohibited) and trenching for new wire paths. The form provides a structured table to track individual valve and station work, including trenching footage, wiring footage, materials used (valves and controllers), and total material costs. Each valve must have a dedicated wire run to the controller, and all work must be recorded on the WeatherTRAK site map. The form requires both contractor certification confirming no wire splitting occurred and County Project Manager approval verifying that work performed meets project specifications.

The T&M Work Authorization Form functions as a field documentation and cost-tracking mechanism for the larger smart irrigation controller upgrade contract. Work is compensated on a time and materials basis, with line items for trenching, wiring, and specific materials such as valves and controllers. The form includes mandatory contractor and field verification signatures, ensuring accountability and compliance with project requirements regarding dedicated wire runs and proper documentation. This form is an exhibit to the broader IFB #012-3044004-EB-2 procurement, which has a bid closing date of May 19, 2026, at 2:00 PM and includes both firm fixed-fee items for controller installation and optional T&M bid items for field wiring repairs at specified hourly rates.
