Union St., Pasadena, CA. The project involves furnishing and installing 1,560 square feet of artificial turf, which includes a 4" compacted and laser-graded stone base, K9 Park 50 Turf (#384SG by Shawgrass or equal), and K9 Sand Infill (#397SG by Shawgrass or equal). Contractors must possess a C-27 contractor license and be registered with the California Department of Industrial Relations. The bid was released on September 21, 2023, with a mandatory pre-bid meeting scheduled for October 3, 2023, at 10:00am, and a bid submission deadline of October 10, 2023, at 3:00 pm through the City's eProcurement Portal. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with pricing to include prevailing wage, and the contract term is one year from execution. Bidders must submit various required forms, including equal employment opportunity documentation, non-collusion declarations, and relevant experience forms.

The procurement appears open to all qualified contractors, with an emphasis on local workforce participation and diversity. Bidders must complete a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) form from SAM.gov, with failure to submit potentially rendering the bid non-responsive. The project requires compliance with several municipal ordinances, including the Living Wage Ordinance and Construction and Demolition Waste Management Ordinance.

While a specific budget range is not explicitly stated, the project involves detailed documentation requirements, including a Subcontractor Listing form and Relevant Experience Form that allows bidders to demonstrate previous similar project capabilities. The contract appears to prioritize local economic engagement, with provisions encouraging recruitment of Pasadena residents and maintaining non-discriminatory hiring practices. Additional requirements include submission of lobbying activity disclosures and workforce utilization forms that capture potential employment impacts and organizational demographics.
