Chcf water treatment skid systems

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) is seeking bids for Supplemental and Hyperchlorination Skid Systems to be installed at the California Health Care Facility located in Stockton, San Joaquin County. This Invitation for Bid (IFB) requires vendors to provide two portable skid systems: one for supplemental chlorination and another for hyperchlorination. The systems must include specific technical components such as chemical metering pumps, chlorine analyzers, controllers, associated piping, and electrical systems. Detailed technical specifications require bidders to submit comprehensive documentation including product cut sheets, assembly details, operation manuals, and certification documents. A mandatory bidder's walk-through is scheduled for April 17, 2025, at 9:30 AM, with gate clearance information required to be submitted by April 10, 2025. The bid submissions are due on May 12, 2025, by 2:00 p.m., and the successful vendor will be responsible for delivering six sets of operation and maintenance manuals, coordinating delivery, and ensuring proper security clearances.

The procurement includes provisions for small business participation, offering a 5% preference for California certified small businesses and options for non-small businesses claiming small business subcontractor participation. While a Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) incentive is available, the minimum DVBE participation percentage has been waived for this solicitation. The contract allows for potential 20% purchase order increases upon written approval. The skid systems must be portable, approximately 49 inches wide and 30 inches maximum height, with locking, tamper-proof, and splash-proof enclosures. Although specific award values are not explicitly stated, the detailed technical requirements suggest a complex procurement with significant infrastructure investment. The systems must integrate with existing mechanical rooms at the correctional healthcare facility, requiring precise engineering and careful implementation to meet the facility's specific water treatment needs.
