Decals & Markings

The City of Pasadena Public Works Department Building Systems and Fleet Management Division (PW-BSFMD) is seeking a vendor to provide decals and markings for municipal use, specifically requiring 2" tall non-reflective black die-cut vinyl lettering using 3M 180-12 black product with adhesive backing. The procurement involves 25 pieces per line item, including various lettering and numbering options such as "PASADENA", "PUBLIC WORKS", "WATER & POWER", and numbers 0-9. Evaluation criteria for this contract include 30 points for experience, 35 points for cost proposal, and 5 points for being a local Pasadena business, with a minimum requirement of five years of experience providing similar services. Key submission dates include a question submission deadline of July 6, 2023, and a proposal submission deadline of July 12, 2023 at 4:00 pm. The contract is scheduled to run from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, and will be awarded based on the lowest Grand Total Price, with additional considerations for municipal project experience and compliance with federal funding requirements.

The procurement appears to have potential set-aside considerations for local Pasadena businesses, with additional points awarded for local status. Vendors must complete several mandatory forms, including a Technical Questionnaire, Relevant Experience Form, Disclosure of Lobbying Activities, Vendor Questionnaire (Forms AA-1, AA-2, AA-3), and provide a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) from SAM.gov. The project may be subject to HUD Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) regulations, which could impose additional compliance requirements. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the procurement involves municipal fleet and infrastructure marking services. Vendors must demonstrate expertise in municipal signage and marking, with a strong emphasis on precise vinyl lettering application and extensive documentation of previous relevant project experience. The city's procurement process appears to prioritize local economic engagement, technical capability, and comprehensive vendor qualifications.
