The California Military Department is soliciting bids for backflow prevention assembly replacement and repair services at three California National Guard facilities in Dublin and Stockton, with bids due October 1, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., and a pre-bid job walk available by appointment. The prime contractor must hold a valid C-36 Plumbing Contractor license from the California Contractors State Licensing Board and be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations — this is a hard eligibility requirement.

The scope encompasses two backflow assembly replacements and one repair across three locations: an 8-inch Wilkins 350ADA double check detector assembly replacement at Camp Parks Building 920 in Dublin; a 6-inch Ames 2000SS double check fire assembly replacement at the National Guard Facility at 8020 S. Airport Way in Stockton; and a 6-inch Febco 860 reduced pressure domestic assembly repair at the Army Aviation Support Facility at 2000 Stimson Road in Stockton. All work must be completed within 60 calendar days from Notice to Proceed, Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., excluding State and Federal holidays. The contractor must provide all materials, labor, bonds, licenses, insurance, equipment, tools, permits, taxes, transportation, and fees.

Work is performed at three California National Guard facilities in San Joaquin and Alameda counties. Bids are lump-sum, all-inclusive, with pricing broken down by location as separate line items. Bid bonds of at least 10 percent are required if the bid exceeds $24,999.99; payment and performance bonds of 100 percent of contract price are required if award exceeds $9,999.99. The California Military Department is committed to a 25 percent Small Business participation goal; certified Small Businesses and Microbusinesses receive a 5 percent preference if they commit to subcontracting 25 percent of the net bid price to certified SBs or MBs. A Disabled Veteran Business Enterprise Incentive Program also applies, with a dollar cap of $100,000 for combined incentives and preferences. All work is subject to prevailing wage requirements and California Civil Rights Laws, the Darfur Contracting Act, and the Iran Contracting Act. Questions are due September 23, 2026 at 5:00 p.m. Bid opening is October 1, 2026 at 2:15 p.m. via Microsoft Teams. The contract is awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder.
