The objective of the project is to construct an auxiliary wet weather combined sewer to mitigate flooding at the lower Alemany area during a LOS storm. The work is to be performed in San Francisco, California.
Bid discounts may be applied in accordance with San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 14B – Rules and Regulations, and Section 2.01 of CMD Attachment 1. The Local Business Enterprise (LBE) subcontracting requirement is 7.00%. The LBE subcontracting requirement can only be met with CMD certified San Francisco Micro and Small-LBEs. The majority of the contract scope is primarily large tunneling work. The tunneling work is a very specialized construction that includes large shafts and trenchless technology. As such, very limited contractors can perform this work nationwide. PUC-LBEs cannot be counted towards meeting the LBE subcontracting requirement(s). Prime and Joint Venture level LBE participation cannot be counted towards meeting any of the LBE subcontracting requirement(s). LBE subcontractors must be certified with CMD in the scope of work they are being listed to perform. All Bidders shall submit documented Good Faith efforts with their Bids as directed on CMD Form 2B, except those who exceed the above-stated subcontracting requirement(s) by at least 35%. Refer to CMD Attachment 1. Failure to comply with Chapter 14B requirements may result in a Bid being deemed non-responsive and ineligible for Contract award. Please contact Jason Chow at 415-554-0631 or Jason.Chow@sfgov.org for further information about the LBE requirements. Subcontracting opportunities may include, but not limited, to the following major types of work: tunnel and shaft construction, ventilation shaft, varies utility relocation, trench support of excavation, dewatering and large concrete box sewer related construction.
