City of Long Beach Division B – Instruction to Bidders

DIVISION B

INSTRUCTIONS TO BIDDERS

Please read these instructions carefully. If you do not submit a complete Bid, the City may determine that your Bid is non-responsive, in which case the City will reject your Bid.

ATTENDANCE AT PRE-BID MEETING: Bidders are strongly encouraged to send an individual who is responsible for the bid, and not a runner. Bid submission processes and how to access the bidding system will be discussed at the pre-bid meeting.

SUBMISSION OF BID: The bid shall be submitted online at https://longbeachbuys.com or https://longbeachbuys.buyspeed.com/bso/ at keyword R-7257. Bidders must be registered on the City’s portal to access the bidding page and to download the plans and specifications. All documents to be submitted with the bid are contained in Division C of this Specification (collectively “Electronic Bid Forms”); these documents shall be scanned and uploaded via the City’s secure online bidding system. Entry of bid amounts will be accomplished electronically. Bids prices submitted on a paper bid form will not be accepted.

The originals of the Bidder’s Bond, and any other document which may require notarization, must be placed in a sealed envelope, clearly marked on the outside with

“R-7257 LONG BEACH AIRPORT GATEWAY SIGN PROJECT, DO NOT OPEN WITH

REGULAR MAIL,” and these originals must be received by the City Clerk at the address shown in the Notice Inviting Bids by the time and date stated therein. These originals may be mailed or sent via package delivery service to City of Long Beach, 411 W. Ocean Blvd., Attn: City Clerk, Long Beach, CA 90802 but the City is not responsible for lost or misdirected mail. The City Clerk’s time-stamp clock is the official time for receipt of documents.

SMALL BUSINESS ENTERPRISE (SBE) PROGRAM: Bidders are advised that this work is subject to the requirements of the City’s SBE Program. Bidders must meet the goal or submit with their bid evidence of a good faith effort to do so. See Divisions C and E of Specifications.

PROJECT LABOR AGREEMENT (PLA): This Work is covered by a Citywide Project Labor Agreement (PLA) entered into by the City of Long Beach with the Los Angeles/Orange Counties Building and Construction Trades Council and the signatory Craft Unions. The PLA establishes the labor relations Policies and Procedures for the City, the Contractor and subcontractors awarded contracts for the Work and for the craft persons employed by the Contractor or subcontractor while engaged in the Work.

The work covered by this Agreement shall be limited to any and all demolition, construction and rehabilitation work pursuant to prime multi-trade and specialty contracts and all subcontracts, of whatever tier, entered into by the City that exceed $750,000 for non-street/right of way projects and $1,000,000 for street/right of way projects.

https://longbeachbuys.com/ https://longbeachbuys.buyspeed.com/bso/

Long Beach Airport B-2 R-7257

The goal of the PLA is to provide that the Work bring full employment and economic benefit to the City and its residents. With the PLA, the parties have established a framework for fair wages, hours and working conditions through which these goals may be achieved, and which will permit the utilization of the most modern, efficient and effective procedures for construction, assure a sufficient supply of skilled craft persons, and reduce or eliminate the causes of disruptions or interference with the Work.

The PLA contains a local hiring goal of 40%, calculated based on total hours worked.

The local hire provision requires best efforts to utilize qualified workers residing in first tier zip codes (which include all of the City of Long Beach), then in second tier zip codes (which reflect the Gateway Cities), and finally in Los Angeles and Orange Counties. In addition, there is a provision with a goal of 10% to hire Transitional Workers and Veterans. Where Project Work is funded in full or in part by State of California Tideland funds, the term Local Resident, as used herein, shall mean an individual whose primary place residence is within the Counties of Los Angeles or Orange. The City of Long Beach will utilize a PLA Administrator who will work with the contractors, residents, Long Beach City College, Pacific Gateway, and the Trades to oversee the provisions of the Agreement. Additionally, the general contractor will be required to hire a "Jobs Coordinator" to provide additional outreach efforts connecting Long Beach residents to job opportunities. The term Jobs Coordinator means an independent third-party individual, entity, or employee with whom the prime contractor enters into a contract or employs to facilitate implementation of the targeted hiring requirements of the PLA.

This Work will provide many opportunities for local residents and local small business enterprises to participate. It is the City’s policy that contractors will cooperate with all efforts of the City, the PLA Administrator, the Jobs Coordinator (if applicable), and other organizations retained by the City to encourage and assist in the participation of local residents and local small businesses in the Work.

Contractor will be required to sign a Letter of Assent to acknowledge and agree to comply with all provisions of the PLA. See Division E of the specifications for the applicable PLA and Letter of Assent

EXAMINATION OF SITE AND WORK: Each Bidder must fully inform itself of the conditions relating to the Work and the employment of labor for the Work. A Contractor’s failure to do so will not relieve it of the obligation to furnish all material and labor necessary to complete the Work.

TIME FOR COMPLETION: See Division H, Section 6-7.

If the unit price is less than one cent, Bidders shall include the proper number of zeros.

Bidders shall not modify the Bid in any way. The City will not consider substitutions except as described in “Item Equivalency”.

Bidders shall provide a Bid for the base Bid as directed by instructions on the Bid Document.

The electronic bidding system will total the amount bid. The TOTAL AMOUNT BID is informational only and may be used by the City for comparison in determining the apparent low Bid at the time of Bid opening. The sum of the mathematically correct extended totals for each item under the ITEM TOTAL column shall be deemed the Bidder’s intended Bid. Any errors shall, at the option of the City, constitute grounds for the City’s rejection of the Bid.

Bidders are cautioned that the electronic bidding system will cease allowing entry at the time stated for bid opening, regardless of when entry was begun. Bidders are reminded to begin bid submission with sufficient time to complete the entries.

The City will not consider oral, telephonic, fax, or paper Bids.

Bidders shall sign the Bid properly, in longhand.

The City will not consider any Bid that does not meet these requirements.

LISTING SUBCONTRACTORS: Submit the list of subcontractors on this Project that is required by the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act (Public Contract Code Section 4100, et. seq.). Failure to list a subcontractor for an item of work at time of bid is an acknowledgement that the bidder will perform such work with its own forces.

ADDENDA ACKNOWLEDGEMENT: All Addenda issued before the time Bids are due shall form a part of the Contract Documents. It is the Bidders’ responsibility to determine what Addenda are issued. Bidders may do so by accessing the website

Long Beach Airport B-5 R-7257 shown in Division A. The City may deem any Bid that fails to acknowledge all Addenda to be non-responsive. Bidders must acknowledge the Addenda in writing on the form “Addenda Acknowledgement / Signature” in Division C.

BID SECURITY: Bidders shall include with their Bids in the manner described above the security shown in the Notice Inviting Bids. The City will reject any Bid not accompanied by such Bid security.

DELIVERY OF BID: Bidders shall input their bids online via the City’s bidding portal.

No paper bids will be accepted.

WITHDRAWAL OF BIDS: Bidders may withdraw their Bids before the time set for the Bid opening in the Notice Inviting Bids. Bidders may not withdraw their Bids after that time without forfeiture of the Bid security. Withdrawal of the Bid will not prejudice any Bidder’s right to submit a new Bid if there is time to do so.

LATE BIDS: The City will reject, and the bidding system will not allow, any Bid received after the time set for the Bid opening whether or not the Bids are opened exactly at the time set in the Notice Inviting Bids

TELEPHONES: The City does not provide telephones for use by Bidders.

BID OPENING: All Bids timely received will be subject to further evaluation with respect to:

• The responsiveness of the Bid

• Determination that Bidder is responsible

AWARD OF CONTRACT AND OWNER’S RIGHTS RESERVED: If the City awards the Contract, it will award the Contract to the lowest responsible Bidder as determined solely by the City. The City Engineer reserves the right to reject any or all Bids, and, to the extent not prohibited by law, to waive any minor irregularity or informality in any Bid that does not give the Bidder a competitive advantage over other Bidders and to take the Bids under advisement for the Bid guarantee period shown above, as may be necessary in the best interests of the City. The City reserves the right to request clarification of any bid term from Bidders.
