About this opportunity
San Bernardino County Regional Parks Department is soliciting bids under ITB PARKS27-PARKS-6590 for live catfish to stock five regional parks, with questions due November 16, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. and bids due December 7, 2026 at 4:30 p.m. The solicitation carries a local-vendor preference under County Policy 11-10, which offers a 5% preference to vendors whose principal place of business is within San Bernardino County. Local vendors may match the lowest quoted price if their bid is within 5% of a non-local vendor's price.
The County seeks approximately 35,000 to 85,000 pounds of live catfish for delivery May through September 2027 at Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park, Glen Helen Regional Park, Mojave Narrows Regional Park, Prado Regional Park, and Yucaipa Regional Park. Deliveries occur on Thursdays or Fridays, except holidays. Grading requires 35% averaging one pound each, 35% averaging 1.5 to 2 pounds each, and 30% averaging over 2 pounds each. Fish must be transported in tank trucks equipped with standard pump and aeration equipment, and the vendor secures the unloading area at each delivery site. Bidders must provide proof of System for Award Management (SAM.gov) registration and, if applicable, California Secretary of State registration.
Pricing is F.O.B. destination and excludes California sales/use tax and federal excise tax, which are invoiced separately. Payment terms are Net 30 days from acceptance. The tentative contract award date is January 2027. Bids will be evaluated on responsiveness, responsibility, and best value, and the County reserves the right to waive specification variations that do not materially affect performance. Bids and supporting materials become County property and are subject to disclosure under the California Public Records Act after Notice of Intent to Award.
The solicitation's attached government files include prevailing wage determinations and apprenticeship compliance exhibits for California public works projects.
