The California Department of General Services (DGS), Facilities Management Division (FMD) has issued an Invitation for Bid (IFB) 23-167820 for Automated Sliding Doors and Door Operator Repairs across state properties in Sacramento and San Francisco. The procurement seeks qualified contractors to provide comprehensive repair, replacement, and technical support services for sliding doors in state buildings. Bidders must hold a valid Class D-28 Doors, Gates and Activating Devices license and provide certified technicians to perform the work. The contract term is 36 months, with bid submissions required by December 3, 2024, and the bid opening scheduled for December 4, 2024. Contractors must submit a detailed cost sheet covering foreseeable repair services, unforeseeable repair services, and technical support services. Evaluation will focus on identifying the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with pricing remaining fixed throughout the contract period. The State will not compensate for any additional fees not explicitly listed on the original cost sheet.

The procurement includes a 3% Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation requirement, with additional incentives available for higher DVBE participation levels. This set-aside provision creates opportunities for certified disabled veteran-owned businesses to participate in the state contracting process. While specific budget ranges are not detailed in the provided documentation, the contract covers repairs and maintenance for sliding door systems across multiple state facilities. The scope suggests a significant ongoing maintenance need, potentially representing a substantial contract value over the 36-month term. The requirement for specialized licensing (Class D-28) and certified technicians indicates a technical and specialized service procurement that demands high-level expertise in automated door systems and related mechanical and electrical components. Interested bidders must demonstrate technical competence, appropriate licensing, and the ability to provide comprehensive door repair and maintenance services across state government facilities in the specified jurisdictions.
