About this file
This file contains Technical Specifications for Flooring Job Order Contracts (JOC 2712 and 2713) issued by San Mateo County's Department of Public Works, structured according to Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) Division format covering Divisions 01-09. The specifications establish comprehensive requirements for flooring and related construction work, including general requirements, temporary facilities and controls, concrete work, openings, and finishes such as tile, wood flooring, resilient flooring, carpeting, and various coatings. The contract involves up to two contractors, each with an aggregate fiscal obligation not to exceed $2,000,000 and a maximum individual term of one year. Separate job orders will be issued by Notice to Proceed as warranted, with the apparent lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder selected for each JOC but excluded from consideration for successive contracts. The contract requires a Class C15 License. Proposals were due December 10, 2026, with the target start date and term subject to final agreement negotiation.
The specifications emphasize compliance with numerous regulatory standards including the National Electrical Code (NFPA 70), Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements. Contractors must provide all labor, materials, tools, and equipment necessary for flooring work as directed by the Director of Public Works or designee, with work to be performed within a designated County area, though the Owner reserves the right to require work at any County jurisdiction location or facility. Key contractual elements include warranty provisions covering both material and labor, moisture and mold protection protocols, temporary facilities management, and detailed execution requirements for various construction tasks. The specifications contain bracketed options indicating that final selections will be made by the Owner and set forth in the Detailed Scope of Work, allowing flexibility for individual job order specifications. The document references related requirements including a 2025 San Mateo County Project Labor Agreement, Equal Employment Opportunity program requirements, and Equal Benefits and Jury Service ordinance compliance.
