Plymouth Elementary School - Fire Alarm System Replacement Project

Monrovia Unified School District is soliciting sealed bids for complete replacement of the fire alarm system at Plymouth Elementary School, with bids due November 5, 2026 at 10:00 a.m., and mandatory prequalification questionnaires due October 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. All bidders, first-tier subcontractors with subcontracts of $100,000 or greater, and all electrical subcontractors must be prequalified prior to bid submission—a mandatory gating requirement that compresses the effective proposal window.

Bidders must hold a current California State Contractor's License, Class C-10. The project involves complete fire alarm system replacement at 1300 Boley Street, Monrovia, California. This is a prevailing wage public works project subject to California Labor Code requirements; all contractors and subcontractors must register with the Department of Industrial Relations and pay workers not less than the general prevailing wage rate as determined by the State of California.

The Engineer's Estimate is $1.0 million. Award will be made to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder based on the base bid amount only. Each bidder must submit bid security equal to ten percent of the total bid price in the form of cash, certified check, cashier's check, or bid bond. The successful bidder must furnish 100% Performance and Payment Bonds. Bid security for unsuccessful bidders will be returned within 60 days of award.

A mandatory informational job walk is scheduled for October 15, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. at Plymouth Elementary School. Product substitutions must be submitted no later than October 28, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. and approved by the District at least 72 hours prior to bid opening. No bids may be withdrawn for 90 days following the bid opening date. Prequalification questionnaires and sealed bids are to be received at the District Office, 325 E. Huntington Drive, Monrovia, California 91016. Inquiries should be directed to Dale McCurry at dale@schoolleaders.com.
