The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) has issued Invitation for Bid (IFB) 25-060 for on-call graffiti removal services at the Daly City DMV field office. The procurement seeks a contractor to provide comprehensive graffiti removal across various surfaces including signs, walls, parking lots, fencing, and both exterior and interior areas. The contract term is thirty-six (36) months, with a proposed start date of August 1, 2025, and an estimated 78 service calls during the contract period. Bidders must possess a C-33 contractor license and comply with prevailing wage requirements. Key deliverables include responding to service notifications within 48 hours and restoring surfaces to like-new condition, with the DMV not guaranteeing a minimum number of service calls. Critical procurement dates include May 6, 2025, for written questions, and May 15, 2025, at 10:00 AM for bid submissions. Bidders must submit proposals via email, with no mailed or hand-delivered bids accepted.

The solicitation includes specific set-aside provisions for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises (DVBE), with a minimum participation goal of 3% for bids totaling $10,000 or more. Bidders may receive a bid incentive of 3-5% based on their DVBE participation percentage.
