Technical Specifications - Distribution Summary

This technical specifications document supports the Department of Public Works' General Construction Job Order Contracts (JOC 2701-2706) for Class B Licensed contractors in California. The specifications establish the technical requirements and standards for distribution-related work under the job order contract system. The JOC procurement seeks to award contracts to up to six qualified contractors, with responses due by December 10, 2026. Each contract carries an aggregate fiscal obligation not to exceed $6.0 million with a maximum individual term of one year. Work is anticipated within designated areas of the County, though the Owner reserves the right to direct contractors to any location or facility under its jurisdiction. Separate Job Orders and Notices to Proceed are issued under each agreement as warranted. The apparent lowest, responsive, and responsible bidder is selected for each JOC but is excluded from consideration for each successive contract award.

The technical specifications contained in this distribution file establish the performance standards, material requirements, and construction methodologies applicable to distribution work performed under the job order contracts. These specifications ensure consistency and quality across contracted services and provide detailed guidance to bidders regarding technical execution requirements. The document serves as a component of the comprehensive contract documents package, which also includes general conditions, special provisions, sample payment and performance bonds, and compliance requirements covering equal employment opportunity, prevailing wage, construction and demolition recycling, and project labor agreements. No specific pricing terms, set-asides, or incumbent contractor information is indicated within the technical specifications themselves, as these elements are addressed separately in the bid forms and contract award documentation.
