CITY COUNCIL
Award of Contract to Vullutini Corporation DBA Royal Electric Company for the Water Pump Station 8 (PS-8) Motor Control Center (MCC) Upgrades Project, Bid No. 25-008 and Determination the Project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
This action will award a construction contract to Vullutini Corporation DBA Royal Electric Company (Royal Electric Company) for the Water Pump Station PS-8 MCC Upgrades project. This project involves electrical and control system upgrades at PS-8.
Recommended Action:
It is recommended the City Council:
1) Award the contract for the Water Pump Station PS-8 MCC Upgrades project to Royal Electric Company, in the amount of $591,350.00 and authorize the City Manager to execute the contract (Attachment A);
2) Declare the bid submitted by National Electric Works, Inc., non-responsive due to failure to acknowledge receipt of bid addenda;
3) Appropriate additional funds in the amount of $119,458.64 from the Water Enterprise Fund (Fund 5100) for construction of the Water Pump Station PS-8 MCC Upgrades project (WT041); and 4) Make a determination the project is Categorically Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Discussion:
The Water Pump Station PS-8 MCC Upgrades project includes important electrical and control system improvements necessary to maintain reliable water service and ensure continued operation of critical infrastructure. MCCs are essential components that power and control pump station equipment. The existing MCC at PS-8 is nearing the end of its service life with aging parts and outdated technology that no longer meet current operational standards and are incompatible with modern equipment.
Work includes the removal and replacement of the main service switchboard, motor control center, distribution panel and transformer. These components distribute power, operate the pumps, regulate voltage and support the overall electrical function of the station. Additional improvements include 1 of 12
June 17, 2025, Item #6
conduit installation and input/output (1/0) wInng, replacement of pump control switches and instrumentation, reuse of existing underground pathways and protection of adjacent facilities throughout construction. The project also includes budgeting for construction support services which provide technical assistance to City staff during construction. These services typically include review of submittals, responses to RFls (requests for information) and support with field coordination and final documentation to help ensure the work is completed in accordance with the approved plans and specifications.
To ensure uninterrupted water delivery and emergency response capabilities, pump station operations will be maintained throughout construction. Construction schedule and timing limitations will be implemented as necessary in response to seasonal fire threat levels, including measures to maintain minimum pump availability and adjust operations accordingly if the emergency pump is temporarily taken out of service.
Bids were opened on April 16, 2025. A total of four bids were received for the construction contract, ranging as follows:
Company Total Bid Amount
National Electric Works, Inc. $483,525.00
Vullutini Corporation DBA Royal Electric Company $591,350.00 Southern Contracting Company $595,000.00
Pacific Power Engineering Technology Inc. $629,000.00
The apparent low bid of $483,525.00, submitted by National Electric Works, Inc., has been determined to be non-responsive. The contractor did not acknowledge three addenda, each of which contained important project information necessary for a complete and compliant bid. This omission could not be waived as a minor irregularity. Additionally, when staff followed up to clarify the significantly lower bid amount, the contractor indicated their pricing was based on alternate equipment not listed in the specifications which does not meet the operational needs. The next apparent low bid of $591,350.00, submitted by Royal Electric Company is responsive to and meets the requirements of the bid specifications. The contract time for this project is 100 working days with an engineer's estimate of $485,074.00.
Environmental Review:
The proposed project is Categorically Exempt from CEQA as a Class 1 Categorical Exemption, pursuant to Section 15301 (c) of the CEQA Guidelines, in that the project involves minor alteration to existing public facilities.
Fiscal Impact:
Funds totaling $547,398.36 are available in the Water Pump Station PS-8 MCC Upgrades (WT041) project funded by the Water Enterprise Fund 5100. With the recommended appropriation in the amount of $119,458.64 from the Water Enterprise Fund 5100 reserves included in this report, there will be sufficient funds in the project account to cover the construction costs of the project. The budget of $666,857.00 will include the cost for construction support services, the construction contract and a 10% construction contingency allowance. The City proactively plans for key water infrastructure repair and replacement projects as part of the annual budget process. 2 of 12
