The initial contract period will run from August 23, 2025, to August 22, 2026, with potential renewal options for one or two additional years. The contract is valued at approximately $1,500,000 per year, with a detailed pricing proposal including labor rates for normal and outside working hours, specific repair services, and a markup percentage on materials. The district reserves the right to adjust contract terms based on marketplace volatility and will allow a price escalation/de-escalation provision tied to the Consumer Price Index. Contractors must provide comprehensive insurance coverage, including general liability, automotive liability, and workers' compensation, with specific minimum limits and requirements detailed in the Insurance Specifications for Contractors document. A bid protest procedure is also in place, requiring protesters to submit a written notice within 72 hours after bid tabulation and a formal written protest within 10 days, accompanied by a bond equal to 1% of the total estimated contract value.
