On-Call Sewer and Storm Drain Repair Services, Specification # 3987

The City of Glendale, California, is soliciting bids for an On-Call Sewer and Storm Drain Repair Services contract (Specification #3987), which will require a qualified contractor to provide emergency repair services for municipal sewer and storm drain infrastructure. The procurement is open to contractors with a Class A California contractor's license who are registered with the Department of Industrial Relations. Prospective bidders must demonstrate experience by having completed at least three prevailing wage public contracts in California within the past five years, with each contract comparable in scope and value to this project. The contract will involve comprehensive infrastructure repair services including traffic control, excavation, pipe replacement, bypass pumping, pavement restoration, and related municipal infrastructure repairs as directed by the City's Director of Public Works. Bids are due on September 4, 2024, at 2:00 p.m. at the City Council Chambers, with the contract set to begin immediately after award. The contractor will be required to dispatch resources and personnel on short notice to perform necessary repairs, with all work to be completed on a time and materials basis.

The contract has a total not-to-exceed amount of $1,200,000 for the initial three-year term, with an option to extend for an additional two years up to $800,000. The pricing structure will be time and material based, with contractors allowed a markup percentage on labor, equipment, materials, and subcontractor costs ranging from 10% to 15% depending on total work value. While no specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises are mentioned in the documentation, contractors must comply with prevailing wage rates and provide certified payroll records. The contract appears to be structured as an on-call service agreement, meaning the contractor will be available to respond to repair needs as they arise, rather than for a specific, predefined project. Contractors will be required to submit detailed worksheets tracking all costs associated with each repair, and must be prepared to mobilize quickly to address sewer and storm drain infrastructure issues within the jurisdictions of Los Angeles County and the City of El Paso De Robles.
