On-Call Electrical Maintenance, Repair, and Emergency Services for County Facilities

The County of San Benito, through its Public Works Department, is soliciting proposals from qualified and licensed electrical contractors to establish a three-year, on-call contract for electrical maintenance, repairs, troubleshooting, and emergency response services at County-owned and operated facilities. Services will be provided on an as-needed basis to support routine facility operations, address electrical deficiencies, and respond to unexpected electrical failures and emergencies.

The selected contractors shall provide qualified personnel, supervision, equipment, tools, materials, and technical expertise to perform electrical services, including electrical distribution system repairs, generator and automatic transfer switch (ATS) troubleshooting, temporary power connections, and emergency power restoration. Contractors must demonstrate the ability to provide timely services, including 24-hour emergency response availability during weekends, holidays, severe weather events, and utility power outages.

The County intends to establish agreements with multiple qualified contractors to ensure adequate service coverage, timely response, and continuity of essential County operations. Work will be assigned as needed and authorized by the County, with no guarantee of a minimum quantity of work or expenditure. Individual work assignments shall not exceed $75,000 per project, subject to applicable provisions of California Public Contract Code Section 22032 under the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (CUPCCAA). Projects exceeding this threshold shall be procured separately in accordance with applicable County purchasing policies and public contracting requirements. Work shall not be divided into smaller assignments to circumvent competitive bidding requirements, pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 22033.
