The California Employment Development Department (EDD) has issued Invitation for Bid (IFB) No. 115201 for Fob/Card Reader System Installation Services at their facility located at 409 K Street in Eureka, California. The procurement involves removing an existing exterior door access keypad and replacing it with a complete exterior door card reader access control system. Bidders must possess a valid C-7, C-28, and/or D-28 State Contractor's License and provide a one-year warranty on parts and labor. A mandatory walk-through is scheduled for 9:00 a.m. on Tuesday, April 29, 2025, at the project site, with bids due by Tuesday, May 6, 2025, at 3:00 p.m. (PT). The contractor will be responsible for providing all necessary equipment, materials, and labor to remove the existing keypad, install the new card reader system according to manufacturer specifications, and ensure proper system startup and testing. The contract term is from June 1, 2025, through June 30, 2025, with specific requirements including system installation, connection to existing power, and providing three copies of specifications and manuals to the EDD Representative.

For this solicitation, Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise (DVBE) participation and incentive requirements have been waived. The procurement covers Humboldt County and specifically targets the Humboldt Hill Census Designated Place (CDP), focusing on a singular EDD facility upgrade. While no specific budget range is explicitly stated in the documentation, the project appears to be a targeted, short-term installation service with clear technical specifications. The contractor must demonstrate technical proficiency in access control system installation and provide comprehensive documentation of the implemented system. The procurement does not indicate any specific set-aside designations beyond the waived DVBE requirements, suggesting the opportunity is open to qualified contractors meeting the specified licensing and technical capabilities.
