Summary of
Proposed
Commission Action:
Award Job Order Contract No. JOC-107, General Engineering (A License) Construction, Mircro-LBE Set-Aside, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Alameda Counties , in the amount not-to-exceed $2,000,000, with a guaranteed minimum task order opportunity amount of $50,000, and a duration of two years , to the sole responsible bidder that submitted a responsive bid, Angotti & Reilly, Inc., to perform A licensed general engineering construction work on San Francisco Public Utilities Commission systems and operations around the Bay Area.
Background: A Job Order Contract is an indefinite quantity contract that enables the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) to complete tasks quickly and efficiently on an as-needed basis under a single, competitively bid construction contract using published pre -set unit prices. The competitive process is based on Adjustment Factors, which are the contractor’s mark -ups (overhead and profit) for when and where the work will be performed (regular time, overtime, and county). For example, a bidder might bid a lower mark-up for regular hours in San Francisco than for counties further away that require additional travel time.
Staff then multiples the Adjustment Factors by each bid line item and adds all the line items together to calculate the Award Criteria Figure. Upon review by the Contract Monitoring Division, the Award Criteria Figure may be modified by application of the Local Business Enterprise (LBE) bid discount.
SFPUC staff then uses the Award Criteria Figure, as may be adjusted by the LBE bid discount, to compare the bids and determine the apparent low bidder.
The SFPUC has used Job Order Contracts for a wide range of construction activities including general building construction and general engineering construction, specialized electrical work in power tu rbines and switchyards, spot sewer repair, marine related services, lighting upgrades, repair of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, and energy efficiency retrofits.
The SFPUC will issue task orders to the selected contractor to perform specific scopes of work during the term of this contract. Each task order is priced based Agenda Title: JOC-107, General Engineering (A License) Construction, Mircro-LBE Set-Aside, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Alameda Counties

on pre-set unit prices, as published with the Advertisement For Bids, multiplied by the appropriate Adjustment Factor from the contractor’s bid.
The not-to-exceed amount of this proposed contract is $2,000,000. Under San Francisco Administrative Code section 6.62, the Commission may increase the maximum contract value by up to 150% of the original contract value (an additional $1,000,000) for a total potential maximum contract amount of up to $3,000,000.
The duration of this proposed contract is two years. Under San Francisco Administrative Code section 6.62, t he Commission may extend the term up to five years. The SFPUC may not issue any new task orders under this contract after four years from the date the Controller certifies the availability of funds for this Contract.
Scope of Contract: The contract work locations are San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Alameda counties. The scope of work for potential task orders consists of:
• Concrete Construction;
• Construction Traffic and Control Services;
• Earthwork and Paving;
• General Engineering Construction; and
• Landscaping.
Funding and Costs: Award: Not-to-exceed amount of $2,000,000 with a guaranteed minimum task order opportunity of $50,000.
Funding: Funding for the contract will be available from various SFPUC Enterprise Funds when Staff issues task orders.

Agenda Title: JOC-107, General Engineering (A License) Construction, Mircro-LBE Set-Aside, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, and Alameda Counties
Commission Meeting Date: August 27, 2024
Outreach: Staff conducted outreach to all Contract Monitoring Division certified San Francisco Local Business Enterprise and SFPUC Local Business Enterprise firms with a General Engineering A License in the Contract Monitoring Division Directory. Despite t he outreach, SFPUC received only one bid.
Under Administrative Code section 6.23(c)(2), where SFPUC receives only one responsive bid from a responsible bidder and no other bid, this Commission may award to the sole bidder if the General Manager determines that: (A) further outreach efforts ; and (B) removal or modification of contract requirements, provided the requirements are not required by law and their removal would not compromise the interests of the SFPUC, would not result in more bids.
Staff perfo rmed outreach to potential bidders and determined that further outreach efforts or modification of the requirements would be unlikely to result in a larger bidding pool with substantially lower bids. Staff therefore recommends award to the sole bidder, Angotti & Reilly , Inc., a Micro-LBE
contractor.
