Flood Control Barriers

The Sacramento County Office of Emergency Services (Sac OES) is conducting a competitive procurement for flood control barriers and related equipment to support Delta region flood mitigation efforts. The Request for Bid (2025-RFB-0095) seeks specific HESCO barrier units, including 500 SL4836 barriers (4 feet high, 3 feet wide, 15 feet long), 4,000 MIL5 barriers (2 feet high, 2 feet wide, 10 feet long), and 100 JACKBOX JB3939 barriers (39 inches high, 39 inches wide, 30 feet long). These barriers will be distributed across 15 strategically positioned 20-foot roll-off containers throughout the Delta region, serving Reclamation Districts and communities including Hood, Walnut Grove, Courtland, and Isleton. The procurement aims to establish a comprehensive flood-fighting material and equipment stockpile that can be quickly accessed during emergency events. Key submission deadlines include a question submission cutoff on December 26, 2025, and bid responses due electronically by January 9, 2026, at 4:00 pm, with contract award anticipated on January 16, 2026. Evaluation will focus on the lowest responsive and responsible bidder offering the greatest value to the County, with bids submitted through the County's electronic bidding portal.

Bidders must meet extensive qualification requirements, including mandatory certifications such as non-collusion affidavits, child support compliance, debarment and suspension certifications, and Iran Contracting Act disclosures. Vendors are required to be registered with SAM.gov and carry specific insurance coverage, including $2,000,000 in General Liability, Workers' Compensation, and $1,000,000 in Automobile Liability. The procurement specifies that materials must be assembled in the USA with geotextile-lined welded mesh construction, and bidders must provide ISO 9001 certification documentation if applicable. Pricing should be submitted as net with a separate line item for 7.75% sales tax, and payment terms are NET/30 following invoice submission and County acceptance. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated, the comprehensive nature of the procurement suggests a significant investment in flood control infrastructure. Bid responses will remain valid for 90 calendar days following the bid closing date, and the County reserves the right to award responses on an individual item, group of items, or entire list basis, or to reject any or all responses.
