About this file

This document outlines a state and local contract opportunity for the California State University, Bakersfield (CSUB) to perform a Nursing Sim Lab Tenant Improvement project. The project, numbered PR1428, involves renovating a portion of the 4th floor of the Science I building on the CSUB campus to create a new Nursing Simulation Lab. The scope of work includes removing existing non-load bearing partitions, adding new partitions, upgrading HVAC, lighting, and fire alarm systems, and constructing a new 1-hour rated exit access corridor. The project has an estimated construction value of $853,000 and a 120 calendar day completion timeline. A mandatory pre-bid walkthrough is scheduled for May 7, 2024, and bids are due on June 5, 2024. The Trustees of the California State University will be awarding the contract. Bidders must be prequalified with the Trustees and are required to achieve a minimum of 3% DVBE participation, for which a bid incentive is provided. The project is subject to prevailing wage requirements, and all contractors must be registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations to bid on public works projects.

The bid package must be requested from CSUB, and bidders will need to provide detailed information demonstrating their qualifications, including having completed at least three similar projects valued at $1 million or more within the past 10 years, with one completed in the last 3 years and one for a higher education campus. Bids will be publicly opened and read, and CSUB has the ability to reject bids if the mandatory qualifications are not adequately met or the bid package is incomplete.
