ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 17, 2025 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Jennifer M. Byers, Economic & Community Development Director DATE: November 24, 2025
SUBJECT: Termination of Agreement No. 2023-067 with Kern County Black Chamber of Commerce The agreement was to perform services under the Entrepreneurship Technical Assistance and Grant Program.

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends termination of the agreement.

BACKGROUND:

In November 2022, the city released a Notice of Funding Availability for City of Bakersfield’s Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Technical Assistance and Grant Program. The objective of the program was to provide technical assistance to entrepreneurs, start-ups, and small businesses, with unique and innovative projects to support a thriving entrepreneurship ecosystem through the City’s Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Technical Assistance Program.

On March 22, 2023, the city entered into Agreement No. 2023-067, with the Kern County Black Chamber of Commerce in the amount of $55,150 dollars to implement the City’s Entrepreneurship Ecosystem Technical Assistance and Grant Program. Section 6 of the Agreement provided that either party may terminate this agreement after giving the other party written notice ten days before the termination is effective. Kern County Black Chamber of Commerce notified the city that it can no longer continue with grant activities and will forfeit the remainder of the funds ($19,275.70). Therefore, staff provided a letter of termination (attached) and requests that City Council terminate Agreement No. 2023-067.

As an American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) program, the funding is already obligated per the approved ARPA framework and must go to another vender to perform the same scope of work. Terminated funds may not be moved to the General Fund nor other projects. Terminated funds would therefore be reprogrammed to another eligible ARPA Entrepreneurship Program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The action for this program is funded through the American Rescue Plan Act, therefore no impact to the City General Fund.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Economic Opportunity for All

Impact Statement
Mini microbusiness and several microbusinesses were disproportionately affected by covid 19, this only added to the generational disparity towards the minority businesses, and it caused irreputable harm to many small businesses causing several small businesses to close their doors, and file bankruptcy, because there was no financial support.

Large Companies vocally support minorities and their diverse cultures but practice policies that keep systems of injustice intact. African Americans and other minorities often bear the brunt of corporate DISCRIMINATION. African American businesses have been historically plagued by generational disparities, and these same disparities still ring true today and with the emergence of covid- 19 it only adds to additional hardships especially on African American businesses because of the lack of generational wealth and venture capitalist. making it much harder for African American business to recover in an unforgiving climate.

Our small business academy will Address the issues of marketing, community engagement, revenue growth strategies, developing a business plan, financial literacy, and assisting in increases productivity strategies.

We visited small pop businesses and discovered that many small businesses were not legal therefore they would miss out on any grants, and any low interest loan that were offered due to the pandemic.

KCBCC has an ongoing training program to address the disparities of our local small businesses.

The fact that procurement is a buzz word that eludes the African American community, there is less than Y of 1 percent of African American businesses that are certified to do business with the (SBE), ( DVBE) state of California, and this number is even lower with the (DBE) federal procurement. 98 percent of minority businesses have no clue what certification is, or knowledge of the fact that there is absolutely no cost for certification on the State or Federal level.

There has never been any real outreach activities to change this practice, therefore these contract continue to circulate to the same companies and the companies within their teaming agreements and established families, and with the emergence of SB605 it increased the threshold to $15 million dollars for small businesses and $ 5 million dollars for micro businesses to extend their relationships with these government entities, while the average African American small business definition is around $ 50 thousand. There is also a ( CBA) that is and should be attached to most federally funded programs.

Hopefully with the passing of AB 2019 this practice will change and allow more truly small and micro business more participation.

California SB Certification; , the CA SB Certification allows city, county, colleges, hospitals, state agencies and schools to apply directly to a certified vender without posting a public competitive bid for any purchases between 5, 000- 249,999.

B ck Chamber
Prime Contractors are in sensitized and sometime required to use SB contractors as a sub -contractor on their government contracts.

Project Description
KCBCC has consistently proven over the last twenty years to meet deadlines and achievements in the areas of project services for entrepreneurs, startups, small businesses, to ensure that small businesses are duly qualified to compete in today' s unstable business climate that has forced many businesses to close their doors.

KCBCC in 2019 establish protocols to address the negative effects of covid- 19 by offering the small businesses in Bakersfield free training through our small business academy, certificate of completion, and at no cost, 1- year free membership, and a five -hundred -dollar Stimulus check, and a seven - hundred -and -fifty -dollar scholarship to assist with rent, utilities, or inventory.

After the successful completion of the program, and to this day some of those members can maintain their membership with KCBCC which also means that their business is still to this day is in good standing in the city of Bakersfield.

This need was determined by numerous phone calls that our office received seeking assistance with their small business. Surveys that our office conducted with small businesses here in the city of Bakersfield and also by walking the streets, visiting, small businesses to establish what their immediate needs were in order to accurately assist the small businesses. We also discovered that a number of popup businesses at the local flea markets and fairs were not legal and did not have a city license or fictitious filing. To combat that issue, we scheduled workshops with Professor Jeremy Woods of CSU B, Morgan Clayton of Tel Tec Security, and Keith Brice of Mid State Development Corporation and these workshops were free of charge with an incentive to actually pay all participants city business license, fictious filling, and basic bookkeeping for completing the one -and -a -half- hour workshop. We also on a continuing basis partner with CSUB' s small Business and Development Center, Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, African American Network of Kern County, and various businesses in the city of Bakersfield to reduce the negative economic impact of the covid - 19 pandemic.

We will continue to increase small business in the city of Bakersfield, we will increase state and federal certifications.

We will continue to market small business and introduce small business to procurement.

We will assist small businesses in marketing.

We train small businesses in profitability.

We will have six workshops.

B. 4 government and private procurement.

The fact that procurement is a buzz word that eludes the African American community, there is less than of I percent of African American businesses that are certified to do business with the (SBE), ( DVBE) state of California, and this number is even lower with the ( DBE) federal procurement. 98 percent of minority businesses have no clue what certification is, or knowledge of the fact that there is absolutely no cost for certification on the State or Federal level.

There has never been any real outreach activities to change this practice, therefore these contract continue to circulate to the same companies and the companies within their teaming agreements and established families, and with the emergence of SB605 it increased the threshold to $ 15 million dollars for small businesses and $ 5 million dollars for micro businesses to extend their relationships with these government entities, while the average African American small business definition is around $50 thousand. There is also a ( CBA) that is and should be attached to most federally funded programs.

Hopefully with the passing of AB 2019 this practice will change and allow more truly small and micro business more participation.

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 17, 2025 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Gregory Pronovost, Technology Services Director
DATE: November 26, 2025
SUBJECT: Agreement with Routeware Inc. (not to exceed $630,000) for Route Management Optimization Technology
[Document Description]
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of the agreement
BACKGROUND:

The City of Bakersfield Solid Waste Division currently relies on a fully paper-based routing and service verification system to manage refuse, recycling, and organics collection services. This manual system is labor-intensive, prone to errors, and provides limited ability to access or analyze data in real time. As regulatory compliance requirements increase and service demands grow, the need for a modern, digital route management and optimization system has become critical. In particular, Senate Bill (SB) 1383, California’s Short-Lived Climate Pollutants (SLCP) Reduction Law, requires jurisdictions to implement mandatory organics collection, contamination monitoring, service verification, and reporting requirements to CalRecycle. A paper-based system is not capable of efficiently meeting these mandates or providing the detailed service-level documentation and data analytics now required by law.

To address these challenges, the City issued a Request for Qualifications/Proposals (RFQ/P) to solicit Statements of Qualifications (SOQ) from qualified contractors capable of providing a turn-key Route Management Optimization Program including hardware, software, implementation, training, and ongoing support. Responses to the RFQ/P were received from two companies as listed below:

1. Routeware, Inc.

2. Carahsoft Technology Corporation
After careful review of firm qualifications, experience, reliability, and cost proposals, Routeware, Inc. was determined to be the most responsive and responsible bidder offering the best overall value to the City.

The Route Management Optimization Program will modernize the Solid Waste Division’s operations by transitioning from manual, paper-based routing to a fully integrated, digital, real-time platform. This transition will enhance operational performance, regulatory compliance, customer service, and environmental outcomes.

Key Benefits of the Routeware Optimization Program:
 Regulatory Compliance – SB 1383:
o Supports mandatory organics collection and service verification requirements. o Enables real-time documentation of contamination monitoring and route-level exceptions.
o Provides electronic recordkeeping and reporting capabilities required for CalRecycle annual reporting and audits.
o Helps demonstrate program effectiveness, reducing the risk of fines or enforcement actions.
 Operational Efficiency:
o Automates route planning and optimization to reduce route times, fuel consumption, and vehicle wear.
o Increased driver productivity and improves daily service performance.  Real-Time Data and Visibility:
o Supervisors can track trucks and route progress in real time. o Enables proactive resolution of missed stops, delays, and customer complaints.  Service Verification and Accountability:
o Time- and location-stamped service records provide proof of service and contamination monitoring.
o Strengthens documentation for SB 1383 compliance and customer billing disputes.  Improved Customer Service:
o Live route updates enable faster response to customer inquiries and service adjustments. o Streamlines communication between dispatch, drivers, and administrative staff.  Integration Capabilities:
o Seamlessly connects with current and future City systems (e.g., NaviLine, Oracle, Vertex One).
o Enhanced reporting, tracking, and operational planning across the organization.  Sustainability and Safety:
o Optimized routing reduces fuel use, greenhouse gas emissions, and overall environmental impact.
o Digital workflows reduce paper use and improve driver safety through turn-by-turn navigation and route support.
 Scalability:
o As the City expands, the system allows for rapid adjustments and deployment of new routes without disrupting operations.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for this program has been included in the Solid Waste Division’s approved budget. Costs will include initial implementation, hardware, software licensing, and ongoing support services. Investing in this technology is expected to reduce operational costs over time by improving route efficiency, reducing mileage, and minimizing paper-based administrative work. It will also help the City avoid potential fines associated with SB 1383 noncompliance. The contract amount will be funded through the Refuse Enterprise Fund and SB 1383 grant, therefore this will not have any City General Fund impacts.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Innovative and Efficient City Government

Routeware Inc.’s Gate Checks
Routeware Inc. will develop a project plan to manage the implementation lifecycle and to report on progress. Any requests for deviations to the project plan will be documented, reviewed, and approved by the respective project managers for the Customer and Routeware Inc. In addition, a summary of requested changes will also be reviewed during the scheduled gate check reviews. Changes must be mutually approved by both parties.

As part of its standard and proven project execution, Routeware Inc. will structure the project into several phases designed to ensure success. Routeware Inc. will work collaboratively with the Customer to develop a plan that details requirements, assigns responsibilities, and sets due dates – to best achieve the goal of meeting the designated go-live date with a minimum of business disruption. From the onset of the project, Routeware Inc. will assign a core implementation team.

Routeware Inc. will execute gate check reviews at the completion of the Discover, Design, and Deploy stages of the project lifecycle. The gate check reviews provide the following:

Docusign Envelope ID: 8887ED49-40C8-4B74-AA66-C2FA53B58B3B ROUTEWARE INC. CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 3 OF 8
Stage 1 - Discover
The Discover stage includes the comprehensive planning and resource scheduling for the duration of the project, including a review of the approach and governance, the cadence for status reporting, and clarification of roles and responsibilities for Routeware Inc. and Customer project team members. It also includes the requirements confirmation interview, documentation, and approval, along with the initial solution configuration based on Routeware Inc.’s best practices for a specific Customer’s needs, and the import of Customer data.

Stage 2 - Design
The “future state” is documented, reviewed, and approved by the Customer, including a validation of the data imported, upon which time the environment is provisioned, the solution installed, and the Customer provided access to the solution. There will be progressive “targeted” training and begin the solution familiarization process for key users, along with the creation of a validation plan to be used during the Deploy stage. The Routeware Inc. team performs an internal verification that the solution, as configured, is operating properly, and aligns with the approved requirements and future state configuration, reaching the milestone referred to as being “solution complete”.

Stage 3 - Deploy
The Deploy stage includes scenario-based training, followed by the Customer’s end-to-end validation of the solution across business scenarios/use cases identified and configured during the Discover and Design stages. Scenario-based training - typically conducted with Customer-identified “super users” - follows a tell, show, do model, where the individual delivering the training outlines the scenario, then demonstrates the scenario, and finally the super users complete an end-to-end example themselves using the “happy path”, a clean, well-executed process without exceptions. Upon completion of the validation plan, the milestone of “solution acceptance” is confirmed by the Customer. At go-live there is final training and practice for end users and drivers, with a focus on what a user needs to do in the system to complete the duties of a particular role, including handling of typical “operational exceptions” encountered on a day-to-day basis. The final system cutover is performed and Routeware Inc. aids the Customer during the go live event and stabilization period, helping to triage, manage and resolve issues that may arise, followed by a transition to support, and project closeout.

Recommended Product Implementation Order
DISCLAMER:
• All implementation durations noted below are estimates based on previous implementation projects.

Timelines for your implementation of each system will vary based on a number of variables including, but not limited to, data quality, resource availability, and the size/complexity of your operation. • Routeware’s implementation teams will always prioritize quality over speed and will provide and maintain a detailed project plan based on your particular needs and goals.

1. Data Workshop
Completion Time: 4-12+ weeks depending on data quality and integrity. • Routeware’s Project Management and Implementation resources in conjunction with Routeware’s data experts will work in collaboration with your project team to acquire the data required for system configuration from your legacy system in its current state. • Routeware’s data experts will map your data to configure your new system. • Routeware’s implementation team will work with your project team to validate this data work before and after it’s imported.
• Routeware’s project team will work with your project team to create a “Go-Live data refresh” plan to ensure data is refreshed as close to go-live as possible.

Note: While Routeware can map your data to the new system, Routeware’s ability to “Clean” legacy data is limited. Your resources may be required to make adjustments to data within the legacy system.

2. Customer and Operations Management – Smart City
Implementation Time: Date Validated and Complete + 12 weeks • Source of truth for all data related to customers and operations. • These systems will integrate with and/or supply nearly all of the data that additional Routeware products require.
• These systems are the “heaviest lifts” to implement in the Routeware product suite. “It’s all downhill from here.”
• These systems are set up in the image of “How the organization operates today” while keeping potential final state changes to the operation in mind. o Routeware recommends not making any unnecessary changes to existing operational processes to avoid undue stress on end users. E.g. If you’re planning to optimize your route Docusign Envelope ID: 8887ED49-40C8-4B74-AA66-C2FA53B58B3B ROUTEWARE INC. CONFIDENTIAL PAGE 6 OF 8
plans and implement on-board computers for drivers as a part of this project, Routeware strongly recommends not implementing both at the same.
o Routeware’s Project Managers will assist your operation with planning the best steps for getting from where you are today to your desired final state.

3. Compliance Tracking – Recyclist, Compliance Publishing Implementation Time: 6-8 weeks
• Implementing Recyclist can technically be done at any time in parallel with other products assuming your implementation resources have enough bandwidth. However, Routeware recommends kicking off the Recyclist implementation following the completion of the Customer and Operations Management system.

4. Customer Communication & Education – ReCollect
Implementation Time: 6-12 weeks depending on modules purchased. • ReCollect can technically be implemented at any time in parallel with other products assuming your implementation resources have enough bandwidth. However, depending on the ReCollect modules purchased, ReCollect will work in concert with your Customer and Operations Management system and as such Routeware recommends starting the ReCollect Implementation following the Customer and Operations Management system implementation to avoid duplication of effort in the provisioning processes.

Assumptions
● All data to be imported will be provided in the Routeware Inc.-approved .csv, .sql or .xml format, and will not require transformation during the import process.
● The Customer will provide adequate resources and key decision makers required to meet tasks associated with implementation milestones.
● The Routeware Inc. project manager will be the primary contact throughout the project, will coordinate the efforts of implementation consultants and subject matter experts (SMEs) throughout the project, and will establish a cadence of status meetings with the Customer. ● The data import process will validate the integrity of the data, and exceptions provided back to the Customer for resolution prior to final import.

Out of Scope
● Interfaces – No interfaces to 3rd party applications are included in this Scope of Work. o If an interface to a 3rd party technology solution is required a secondary SOW will be drafted following process discovery and technical scoping conversations including Routeware, the customer, and the 3rd party technology provider.
● Custom Reports – Reporting is robust across all Routeware Inc. solutions. If you require unique custom reports, those will be scoped separately with an estimate for your consideration. ● Customized development work to any Routeware system.
● Development of non-standard workflows, use cases, or business practices. ● Development of non-standard training documents

SOW Change Order
Changes to a SOW will require a written change order signed by the parties prior to implementation of the changes. Such changes may include, for example, changes to the scope of work and any corresponding changes to the estimated fees and schedule for the performance of the applicable Services. Upon Routeware Inc.’s receipt of a change order request from the Customer, Routeware Inc. will promptly notify the Customer if Routeware Inc. believes that the change order request requires an adjustment to the fees or to the schedule for the performance of the applicable Services. In such an event, the parties will negotiate in good faith a reasonable and equitable adjustment to the fees and/or schedule, as applicable. During such negotiations, Routeware Inc. may continue to perform Services pursuant to the existing SOW and will have no obligation to perform Services pursuant to the change order request unless and until the parties have executed an applicable change order. Any time and materials that are required to evaluate a change order request are billable at Routeware Inc.’s then-current standard rates.

ELECTRONIC RECORD AND SIGNATURE DISCLOSURE

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT
MEETING DATE: December 17, 2025 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Greg Terry, Chief of Police
DATE: November 17, 2025
SUBJECT: Agreement with Bakersfield City School District (compensation to the city not to exceed $118,000) to provide School Resource Officer and a termination date of July 31, 2026. (Ward 2) RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of the agreement.

BACKGROUND:

In February 2018, the Bakersfield Police Department (BPD) and the Bakersfield City School District (BCSD), as recommended by the City Council’s Safe Neighborhoods Committee, implemented a pilot project to engage two full-time school resource officers (SRO) dedicated to BCSD schools. The goal of this partnership was to reduce chronic absenteeism, chronic truancy violence, drug and alcohol use, gang involvement, bullying, and harassment in the community to help in ensuring BCSD schools are safe learning environments with positive school culture.

On August 3, 2021, BPD entered into Agreement No. 2021-175 with BCSD to provide up to four full-time SRO program services.

On January 25, 2023, BPD entered into Agreement No. 2023-022 with BCSD to continue the SRO program services with a term date of July 30, 2023, and a not to exceed amount of $240,000.

On August 9, 2023, BPD entered into Agreement No. 2023-181 with BCSD to provide SRO program services with a term date of July 31, 2025, and a not to exceed amount of $240,000.

Due to the success of the program both parties would like to continue the SRO program for the Fiscal Year 2025-26 and the 2025-26 school year.

BCSD will only be billed for the weeks the district schools are in session, plus one additional week immediately prior to the first week of the school year and one additional week immediately following the last week of the school year. BCSD may also be billed for the weeks summer school is in session if SROs are requested. Any additional services, including overtime, will be charged to BCSD at actual costs to the City in addition to the baseline figure quoted above if such additional services are mutually agreed upon in writing by both City and BCSD prior to services being rendered.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The contract with the School District will pay the rates that cover for the SR Officers; thus it’s a cost neutral agreement meaning the cost incurred by the Department will be covered by the School District during the School Year of 2025-26.

2. HHAP-5 Agreement (Not to exceed $300,000) with Flood Bakersfield Ministries for Street Outreach
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of the agreements.

BACKGROUND:

In July 2023, the State of California established the Homeless Housing Assistance and Prevention Round 5 Program (HHAP-5) to be administered by California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). HHAP-5 is a $1 billion one-time block grant that provides local jurisdictions with flexible funding to continue efforts to end and prevent homelessness in their communities. The City of Bakersfield received $5,678,236.56 in HHAP-5 funds.

There are two HHAP-5 agreements before Council today with The Mission at Kern County (TMKC) and Flood Bakersfield Ministries, Inc. (Flood). The agreement with TMKC will provide $350,000 of HHAP-5 funding to pay for an additional year of operations associated with the City-funded 40-bed expansion.

TMKC will continue to provide emergency shelter, permanent housing navigation, and connections to vital community resources to individuals experiencing homelessness within the City of Bakersfield. The term end is January 31, 2027.

The agreement with Flood will provide $300,000 for street outreach services. This agreement will fund two street outreach teams to deliver assistance and facilitate connections to emergency shelters (this program serves as the main entry point for the Brundage Lane Navigation Center), housing vouchers, homeless services, and other community resources for citizens experiencing homelessness within the City of Bakersfield. The term end is December 31, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The actions to approve the agreements will not be funded with State HHAP Funds, therefore will have no impact on the City General Fund.

If these improvements are not completed when the developer, Jeremy Willer Construction, Inc., wishes to record a portion of the tentative tract map (through a final map), the developer must execute an improvement agreement through which the developer agrees to complete the construction of the improvements within one year of the date the agreement is executed. The City Engineer may extend the time to complete the improvements upon request. Certificates of Occupancy or final inspections will not be allowed for any building within the bounds of the final map until these required improvements are completed and accepted by the City of Bakersfield and a Notice of Completion for the improvements is recorded.

The Development Services Department has completed the review of the final map submitted by the Developer and is recommending that the Council approve the map. In addition, the Improvement Agreement outlining the Developer’s responsibilities for onsite infrastructure improvements, which typically accompanies approval of the final map, is also included and recommended for approval.

The Landscape Improvement Agreement requires the Developer to complete the required landscape and irrigation improvements within the time frame and in the manner outlined in the agreement’s terms. A landscape agreement is required whenever the Developer desires to record their final map before the landscaping improvements are in.

MEETING DATE: December 17, 2025 AGENDA CATEGORY: Consent - Agreements TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Phillip Burns, Development Services Director
DATE: November 24, 2025
SUBJECT: Final Map and Private Improvement Agreement with Castle & Cooke California, Inc. for Tract 7356 Unit 2.

Developer is requesting to enter into an agreement so the final map for Tract 7356 Unit 2 located south of Ming Avenue and west of Rutherford Park Avenue can be approved and recorded (Ward 5).

RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of the Final Map and Private Improvement Agreement.

BACKGROUND:

Per Bakersfield Municipal Code Chapter 16, “Subdivisions," Tentative Tract 7356 was conditioned by the Planning Commission to require the construction of certain improvements within and adjacent to the tentative tract map, which include, but are not limited to, streets, sewer, walls, and storm drain on or adjacent to the property being subdivided. If these improvements are not completed when the developer, Castle & Cooke California, Inc., wishes to record a portion of the tentative tract map (through a final map), the developer must execute an improvement agreement through which the developer agrees to complete the construction of the improvements within one year of the date the agreement is executed. The City Engineer may extend the time to complete the improvements upon request. Certificates of Occupancy or final inspections will not be allowed for any building within the bounds of the final map until these required improvements are completed and accepted by the City of Bakersfield and a Notice of Completion for the improvements is recorded.

The Development Services Department has completed the review of the final map submitted by the Developer and is recommending that the Council approve the map. In addition, the Improvement Agreement outlining the Developer’s responsibilities for onsite infrastructure improvements, which typically accompanies approval of the final map, is also included and recommended for approval.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There will be no financial impact to the City. Proposed street improvements are being bonded for and included within the proposed improvement agreement.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Reliable Infrastructure

ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT

FROM: Zachary Meyer, Public Works Director
DATE: November 25, 2025
SUBJECT: Agreements for On Call Services for General Electrical Services and Electrical Maintenance

1. A-C Electric Construction (Not to Exceed $650,000)

2. Braun Electric Company, Inc. (Not to Exceed $650,000)

3. Telstar (Not to Exceed $300,000)
(All Wards)
RECOMMENDATION:

Staff recommends approval of all three agreements.

BACKGROUND:

Currently, Public Works lacks sufficient qualified electrical staff with the necessary experience and certifications to (1) safely work on the specialized high- and low-voltage electrical systems (including motor control centers and lines 480V and below/above) at the City’s Green Waste Recycling Facility, and (2) perform comprehensive preventative maintenance, repairs, new installations, and rough-in electrical work across all City-owned infrastructure.

In October 2025, the Public Works Department conducted a Request for Qualifications Proposal (RFQP) to provide on-call general electrical services and electrical maintenance for City facilities, equipment and infrastructure. The RFQP was advertised through the City’s website, PlanetBids and The Bakersfield Californian. In addition, Public Works staff contacted local electrical contractors to participate in the RFQP.

The Public Works Department received the following Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) for the on-call general electrical services and electrical maintenance:

1. A-C Electrical Construction

2. Braun Electric Company, Inc.

3. Curtis Electrical Construction, Inc.

4. Esqueda Electrical Services

5. Telstar
The Public Works Department’s evaluation committee ranked the proposer’s Qualifications Based Score (QBS) and reviewed their fee schedule for the conformance with ranges determined to be acceptable in our independent cost estimate. The committee determined that all submittals met the minimum requirements. The following is the summary of the contractors reviewed:

1. A-C Electrical Construction submitted an SOQ with a QBS score of 98.3.

2. Braun Electric Company, Inc. submitted an SOQ with a QBS score of 87.4

3. Curtis Electrical Construction, Inc. submitted an SOQ with a QBS score of 84.7.

4. Esqueda Electrical Services submitted an SOQ with a QBS score of 70.5.

5. Telstar submitted an SOQ with a QBS score of 92.2.

Public Works staff recommend approving a contract with the following contractors:

1. A-C Electric Construction with a not to exceed agreement for $650,000.

2. Braun Electric Company, Inc. with a not to exceed agreement for $650,000.

3. Telstar with a not to exceed agreement for $300,000.

Each contract will be effective for a four-year term from the effective date of the Agreement. The contract amount was based on current staffing levels and projected workload. The agreements will be used in various wards.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Funding for the A-C Electric Construction Agreement and the Braun Electric Company, Inc. agreement will be from varying sources. All of the sources from the Departments are budgeted with the Fiscal Year 2025-

26. The funding for the Telstar Agreement will be from the Refuse Enterprise Fund. Approximately 65% of the cost for services provided at the Mt. Vernon Organics Facility will be reimbursed by Kern County under the Green Waste Agreement. There is no cost impact to the General Fund.

COUNCIL GOAL:

Reliable Infrastructure
