General work description:

The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) will be soliciting bids for a Passenger Facility Renovation and Maintenance Job Order Contract (“JOC”), hereinafter referred to as the “Project”.

Notice is hereby given that VTA is now soliciting Statements of Qualifications (“SOQ”) from bidders (“Bidders”) with construction expertise in maintenance, repair and minor construction of public works. This Request for Pre-Qualification of Bidders is intended to solicit information in the form of a Pre-Qualification Questionnaire and qualification statements.

All Bidders that intend to submit a Bid for the Project must fully complete the Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, provide all materials requested herein, and be approved by VTA in order to be included on the final qualified Bidders list. No Bid will be accepted from a Bidder that has failed to comply with these requirements. If two or more contractors submit a SOQ as part of a Joint Venture or expect to submit a SOQ as part of a Joint Venture, each entity within the Joint Venture must be separately pre-qualified.

Answers to questions contained in the attached Pre-Qualification Questionnaire, information about current bonding capacity, notarized statement from surety, and the most recent reviewed or audited financial statements, with accompanying notes and supplemental information, are required. VTA will use these documents as the basis of rating Bidders with respect to the Project size and scope. VTA reserves the right to check other sources available. VTA’s decision will be based on objective evaluation criteria.

A Job Order Contract is a competitively bid, indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract procurement which VTA will use for procurement of renovation, maintenance, repair and minor construction services, as authorized by California Public Utilities Code Section § 100157.5. Work under a JOC is accomplished by use of a predefined set of bid items with set fixed prices that are assigned on a periodic basis through the issuance of individual Task Orders against the Contract.
