About this opportunity
The City of Oakland is requesting proposals for bus shelter cleaning and maintenance services citywide through its Department of Transportation and Finance Department, with proposals due October 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m. Pacific Time. A 50% Local/Small Local Business Enterprise (L/SLBE) participation requirement applies — a hard filter for team composition.
The scope encompasses routine cleaning with EPA-certified disinfectants, graffiti and sticker removal, pressure washing, minor maintenance including bolt replacement and panel repairs, lighting inspections, and removal or relocation of shelters. Services will be delivered on both scheduled and call-out bases, with 24-hour response requirements for call-out cleaning requests and 72-hour response for public information replacement. The contractor must integrate with a City-approved electronic work order and asset management system for reporting and inspections.
The contract term is two years with options for two additional one-year extensions subject to satisfactory performance and funding availability. Compensation is a not-to-exceed amount established through mutual agreement on scope and fee schedule, with billing based on actual eligible costs; progress payments will not exceed 90% of the total contract, with final 10% withheld until successful completion.
The City requires compliance with the Oakland Living Wage Ordinance, Minimum Wage Ordinance, Equal Benefits Ordinance, Prompt Payment Ordinance, and non-discrimination requirements. Comprehensive insurance coverage is mandatory, with the City named as additional insured.
Evaluation criteria are weighted as follows: relevant experience (25 points), qualifications (25 points), organization (20 points), approach (25 points), L/SLBE participation (2–5 points), and other factors (5 points), totaling 105 points. The pre-proposal meeting is October 6, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time via Microsoft Teams. Questions are due October 9, 2026 by 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time. Contract award is anticipated in early December 2026.
