responsible for examining the Project Site(s) during the Mandatory Site Walk at 2:00pm on February 26, 2026
and the Contract Documents, including any Addenda issued during the Bidding period, and for informing itself
with respect to local labor availability, means of transportation, necessity for security, laws and codes, local permit
requirements, wage scales, local tax structure, Contractors' licensing requirements, availability of required
insurance, and other factors that could affect the Work. Bidders are responsible for consulting the standards
referenced in the Contract. Failure of Bidder to so examine and inform itself shall be at its sole risk, and no relief
for error or omission will be given except as required under State law.
C. Interpretation of Contract Documents
Discrepancies in, and/or omissions from the Plans, Specifications or other Contract Documents or questions as to
their meaning shall be immediately brought to the attention of the District by submission of a written request for
an interpretation or correction to the District. Such submission, if any, must be sent by emailing the District at

Any interpretation of the Contract Documents will be made only by written addenda duly issued via PlanetBids
and posted on the District's webpage at https://carlsbadusd.net/purchasing-bids. The District will not be
responsible for any explanations or interpretations provided in any other manner. No person is authorized to
make any oral interpretation of any provision in the Contract Documents to any Bidder, and no Bidder should rely
on any such oral interpretation.
Bids shall include complete compensation for all items that are noted in the Contract Documents as the
responsibility of the Contractor.
D. Inspection of Site: Pre-Bid Conference/Site Walk
Each prospective Bidder is responsible for fully acquainting itself with the conditions of the Project Site, as well as
those relating to the construction and labor of the Project, to fully understand the facilities, difficulties and
restrictions which may impact the cost or effort required to complete the Project. A mandatory Pre-Bid
Conference/Site Walk will be held at 2:00pm on February 26, 2026. Any Bid submitted by a Bidder who was
either late to the Site Walk or who does not fully attend the Site Walk shall be considered a non-responsive Bid.

shall be made by written Addenda. All addenda issued by the District shall be included in the Bid and made part
of the Contract Documents. Pursuant to Public Contract Code Section 4104.5, if the District issues an Addendum
which includes material changes to the Project less than 72 hours prior to the deadline for submission of Bids, the
District will extend the deadline for submission of Bids. The District may determine, in its sole discretion, whether
an Addendum warrants postponement of the Bid submission date. Each prospective Bidder shall provide the
District with a name, address and email address to which Addenda may be sent, as well as a telephone number
by which the District can contact the Bidder.
Addenda will be posted on PlanetBids and on the District website at https://carlsbadusd.net/purchasing-bids.

RFP 12-2526 Painting Services- Districtwide, As-Needed 5 of 60

F. Alternate Bids
If alternate Bid items are called for in the Contract Documents, the lowest Bid will be determined on the basis of
the base Bid only. However, the District may choose to award the Contract on the basis of the base Bid alone or
the base Bid and any alternate or combination of alternates. The time required for completion of the alternate
Bid items has been factored into the Contract duration and no additional Contract time will be awarded for any
of the alternate Bid items. The District may elect to include one or more of the alternate Bid items, or to otherwise
remove certain work from the Project scope of work. Accordingly, each Bidder must ensure that each Bid item
contains a proportionate share of profit, overhead and other costs or expenses which will be incurred by the
Bidder.
G. Completion of Bid Forms
Bids shall only be prepared using copies of the Bid Forms which are included in the Contract Documents. The use
of substitute Bid forms other than clear and correct photocopies of those provided by the District will not be
permitted. Bids shall be executed by an authorized signatory as described in these Instructions to Bidders. In
addition, Bidders shall fill in all blank spaces (including inserting "N/A" where applicable) and initial all
interlineations, alterations, or erasures to the Bid Forms. Bidders shall neither delete, modify, nor supplement the
printed matter on the Bid Forms nor make substitutions thereon. Deviations in the Bid form may result in the Bid
being deemed non-responsive.
H. Modifications of Bids
Each Bidder shall submit its Bid in strict conformity with the requirements of the Contract Documents.
Unauthorized additions, modifications, revisions, conditions, limitations, exclusions, or provisions attached to a
Bid may render it non-responsive and may cause its rejection. Bidders shall neither delete, modify, nor supplement
the printed matter on the Bid Forms, nor make substitutions thereon. Oral, telephonic, and electronic
modifications will not be considered, unless the Notice to Bidders authorizes the submission of electronic Bids
and modifications thereto and such modifications are made in accordance with the Notice to Bidders.
I. Designation of Subcontractors
As required pursuant to the Subletting and Subcontracting Fair Practices Act, each Bidder shall submit with its Bid
a list of the names, license numbers, DIR registration numbers, if the project is a public works project in excess of
$25,000 or a maintenance project in excess of $15,000, and locations of the places of business of each
subcontractor that will perform work or labor or render service to the Bidder in or about the Project, or that,
under subcontract to the Bidder, will specially fabricate and install a portion of the work, in an amount in excess
of one-half of 1 percent (0.5%) of the total amount of the Bidder's Bid.
A Bidder may not list more than one subcontractor for any one portion of the work. A Bidder that fails to list a
subcontractor for any portion of the work represents that it is fully qualified to and shall perform such work using
its own forces. If the Bid documents require the Bidder to submit alternate Bids and the Bidder intends to use
different or additional subcontractors for the alternates, the Bidder must submit a separate list of subcontractors
for each such alternate. A Bidder shall submit the lists of subcontractors only on the form included in the Bid
documents.
J. Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises
This Project has a participation goal for Disabled Veteran Business Enterprises ("DVBE") of at least three percent
(3%) of the overall dollar amount of state funds allocated to the District pursuant to the Leroy F. Greene School
Facilities Act of 1998, and expended each year by the District, in accordance with Education Code section
17076.11. Contractor will provide the anticipated DVBE participation in the Contract, and may be required to
provide documentation to the District regarding efforts to achieve this goal as a condition of payment.
K. Licensing Requirements
Pursuant to Section 7028.15 of the Business and Professions Code and Section 3300 of the Public Contract Code,
all Bidders must possess proper licenses for performance of this Contract. Subcontractors must possess the
appropriate licenses for each specialty subcontracted. Pursuant to Section 7028.5 of the Business and Professions
RFP 12-2526 Painting Services- Districtwide, As-Needed 6 of 60

Code, the District shall consider any Bid submitted by a Contractor not currently licensed in accordance with state
law and pursuant to the requirements found in the Contract Documents to be nonresponsive, and the District
shall reject the Bid. The District shall have the right to request, and Bidders shall provide within five (5) calendar
days, evidence satisfactory to the District of all valid license(s) currently held by that Bidder and each of the
Bidder's subcontractors, before awarding the Contract.
L. Public Works Contractor Registration Certification
Please be advised that contractors wishing to bid on this public works project are required to pre-qualify with the

N. Signing of Bids
All Bids submitted shall be executed by the Bidder or its authorized representative. Bidders may be asked to
provide evidence in the form of an authenticated resolution of its Board of Directors or a Power of Attorney
evidencing the capacity of the person signing the Bid to bind the Bidder to each Bid and to any Contract arising
therefrom. If a Bidder is a joint venture or partnership, it may be asked to submit an authenticated Power of
Attorney executed by each joint venturer or partner appointing and designating one of the joint venturers or
partners as a management sponsor to execute the Bid on behalf of Bidder. Only that joint venture or partner shall
execute the Bid.
The Power of Attorney shall also: (1) authorize that particular joint venturer or partner to act for and bind Bidder
in all matters relating to the Bid; and (2) provide that each venturer or partner shall be jointly and severally liable
for any and all of the duties and obligations of Bidder assumed under the Bid and under any Contract arising
therefrom. The Bid shall be executed by the designated joint venturer or partner on behalf of the joint venture or
partnership in its legal name.
O. Bid Guarantee (Bond)
Each Bid shall be accompanied by: (a) certified check made payable to the District; (b) a cashier's check made
payable to the District; or (c) a Bid Bond payable to the District executed by the Bidder as principal and surety as
obligor in an amount not less than 10% of the maximum amount of the Bid. Personal sureties and unregistered
RFP 12-2526 Painting Services- Districtwide, As-Needed 7 of 60

surety companies will not be accepted.
The surety insurer shall be a California admitted surety insurer, as defined in Code of Civil Procedure Section
995.120. The cash, check or Bid Bond shall be given as a guarantee that the Bidder shall execute the Contract if it
be awarded to the Bidder, shall provide the payment, Performance Bonds, Insurance Certificates, and
endorsements as required herein within ten (10) calendar days after notification of the award of the Contract to
the Bidder.
Failure to provide the required documents may result in forfeiture of the Bidder's Bid deposit or bond to the
District and the District may award the Contract to the next lowest responsible Bidder, or may call for new Bids.
P. Withdrawal of Bid
Prior to Bid opening, a Bid may be withdrawn by the Bidder only by means of a written request signed by the
Bidder or its properly authorized representative. No Bidder may withdraw their Bid for a period of thirty (30) days
after the date set for the opening of the Bids.
Q. Basis of Award: Balanced Bids
The District shall award the Contract to the lowest responsible Bidders submitting responsive Bids to establish a
pool of qualified vendors for as-needed services. The District may reject any Bid, which, in its opinion, when
compared to other Bids received or to the District's internal estimates, does not accurately reflect the cost to
perform the Work. The District may reject as non-responsive any Bid, which unevenly weights or allocates costs,
including but not limited to overhead and profit to one or more particular Bid items.
R. Disqualifications of Bidders: Interest in More than One Bid
No Bidder shall be allowed to make, submit, or be interested in more than one Bid. However, a person, firm,
corporation, or other entity that has submitted a sub proposal to a Bidder, or that has quoted prices of materials
to a Bidder, is not thereby disqualified from submitting a sub proposal or quoting prices to other Bidders
submitting a Bid to the District. No person, firm, corporation, or other entity may submit a sub proposal to a
Bidder, or quote prices of materials to a Bidder, when also submitting a prime Bid on the same Project.
S. Insurance Requirements
The successful Bidder shall procure the insurance in the form and in the amount specified in the Contract
Documents. The effective and expiration dates of the Contractor's insurance policies shall correspond with the
effective and expiration dates of the Contract.
T. Award or Rejection of Bids
Once all Bids are opened and reviewed to determine the lowest responsive and responsible Bidders, the District
may award the Contract(s). The apparent successful Bidder(s) should begin to prepare the following documents:
(1) the Performance Bond; (2) the Payment Bond; and (3) the required insurance certificates and endorsements.
Once the District notifies the Bidder of the award, the Bidder will have ten (10) consecutive calendar days from
the date of this notification to execute the Contract and supply the District with all of the required documents and
certifications. Regardless of whether the Bidder supplies the required documents and certifications in a timely
manner, the Contract time will begin to run ten (10) calendar days from the date of the notification. Once the
District receives all of the properly drafted and executed documents and certifications from the Bidder, the District
may issue a Notice to Proceed to that Bidder.
The Board of Trustees of the Carlsbad Unified School District, however, reserves the right to reject any/or all Bids
if the District determines that it would be in its best interest to cancel the solicitation, to accept or reject any one
or more items of a Bid, and to waive any informality or irregularity in the Bid(s) or in the Bidding process. If a Bid
fails to conform to requirements set forth in the Notice to Bidders, or any of the other Contract Documents
(including, without limitation, if the District determines that the Bid is unintelligible, internally inconsistent, or
ambiguous), the District may reject the Bid as not responsive to the Notice to Bidders. The District may, but is not
required to, seek information from any vendor that may resolve an ambiguity in the vendor's Bid.
U. Filing of Bid Protests
RFP 12-2526 Painting Services- Districtwide, As-Needed 8 of 60

Bidders may file a "protest" of a Bid with the District's Director of Purchasing. In order for a Bidder's protest to be
considered, the protest must:
1. Be filed in writing within two (2) business days of notification of award recommendation. Failure to file a
timely Bid protest shall constitute a Bidder's waiver of his/her right to protest the award of the Contract;
2. Clearly identify the specific irregularity or accusation;
3. Clearly identify the specific District staff determination or recommendation being protested;
4. Specify, in detail, the grounds of the protest and the facts supporting the protest;
5. Include all relevant, supporting documentation with the protest at time of filing.
If the protest does not comply with each of these requirements, it will be rejected.
If the protest is considered, the District's Director of Purchasing, or other designated District staff member, shall
review the basis of the protest and all relevant information. The Director of Purchasing will provide a written
decision to the protestor. The protestor may appeal the decision to the Superintendent or his/her designee, the
Assistant Superintendent, Business Services.
V. Workers Compensation
Each Bidder shall submit the Contractor's Certificate Regarding Workers' Compensation form.
W. Substitution of Security
The Contract Documents call for monthly progress payments based upon the percentage of the work completed.
The District will retain five percent (5%) of each progress payment as provided by the Contract Documents as
retention. At the request and expense of the successful Bidder, the District will substitute securities for the amount
so retained in accordance with Public Contract Code Section 22300.
X. Prevailing Wages
The Bidder to which the District awards a Contract for the Project, and each of that Bidder's subcontractors of any
tier, shall be required to pay not less than the general prevailing rates of per-diem wages in the locality in which
the work is to be performed for each craft or type of worker needed to execute the Contract ("Prevailing Wages").
The successful Bidder must retain copies of certified payrolls for a minimum of five years from the date of
completion and submit them upon request of the District or its authorized agent. A copy of the per diem rates of
Prevailing Wages shall be posted at the site of the Project.
Rates are available at http://www.dir.ca.gov/dlsr/pwd/index.htm
Y. Debarment of Contractors and Subcontractors
In accordance with the provisions of the Labor Code, Contractors or subcontractors may not perform work on a
public works project with a subcontractor who is ineligible to perform work on a public project pursuant to Section
1777.1 or Section 1777.7 of the Labor Code. Any Contract on a public works project entered into between a
Contractor and a debarred subcontractor is void as a matter of law. A debarred subcontractor may not receive
any public money for performing work as a subcontractor on a public works Contract. Any public money that is
paid to a debarred subcontractor by the Contractor for the Project shall be returned to the District. The Contractor
shall be responsible for the payment of wages to workers of a debarred subcontractor who has been allowed to
work on the Project.
Z. Performance Bond and Payment Bond Requirements
Within the time specified in the Contract Documents, the Bidder to whom a Contract is awarded shall deliver to
the District a Performance Bond and Payment Bond in the form supplied by the District and included in the
Contract Documents. Failure to do so may, in the sole discretion of the District, result in the forfeiture of the Bid
Guarantee. The surety supplying the bond must be an admitted surety insurer, as defined in Code of Civil
Procedure Section 995.120, authorized to do business as such in the State of California and satisfactory to the
District. The successful Bidder will be required to provide both a performance bond and a separate payment bond,
each in the amount of twenty five thousand dollars ($25,000.00), prior to the execution of the Contract. If any one
RFP 12-2526 Painting Services- Districtwide, As-Needed 9 of 60

project or accumulation of projects exceeds $25,000.00, the Contractor will be required to increase the existing
Performance and Payment Bonds to one hundred percent (100%) of the project(s) total.
AA. Request for Substitutions
The successful Bidder shall comply with the substitution request provisions set forth in the Special Conditions,
including any deadlines for substitution requests, which may occur prior to the Bid opening date.
BB. Technology Clause
As technology advances, it is understood that improved or enhanced products may supersede existing products
in both price and performance and yet be essentially similar. The District's requests for proposals seek to address
the rapid advances in technology by allowing functionally similar or identical products that may be introduced in
the future, during the term of any project, to be included under the general umbrella of compatible product lines
and are thus specifically included in the District's Contract document.
CC. Sales and Other Applicable Taxes, Permits, Licenses, and Fees
Contractor and its subcontractors performing work under this Contract will be required to pay California sales tax
and other applicable taxes, and to pay for permits, licenses and fees required by the agencies with authority in
the jurisdiction in which the work will be located, unless otherwise expressly provided by the Contract Documents.
DD. Execution of Contract
The Bidder to whom an award is made shall execute the Contract in the amount determined by the Contract
Documents. The District may require appropriate evidence that the persons executing the Contract are duly
empowered to do so.
EE. Required Certifications
Bidders, for all projects involving state funds are required to submit the "Asbestos-Free Materials Certification."
This form is included in this package and must be signed under the penalty of perjury and dated, and shall be
submitted to the District. The successful Bidder shall also execute, under the penalty of perjury and dated, the
"Recycled Content Certification" and the "Drug-Free Workplace Certification" included in this package.
Further, by law it is the District's responsibility to determine whether a Contractor must provide fingerprint
certification. Pursuant to Education Code section 45125.2, the District considers the totality of the circumstances
in order to determine if fingerprinting of employees of a Contractor working on a school site is required. Factors
to be considered include the length of time the Contractor's employees are on school grounds, whether students
are in proximity with the location where the Contractor's employees are working, and whether the Contractor's
employees are working alone or with others. A determination regarding whether fingerprint certification is
required is contained in the Special Conditions. These forms are included with the Bid package and must be signed
under the penalty of perjury and dated.
FF. Labor Compliance Monitoring
In accordance with California Labor Code section 1771.4, unless exempted, all public works projects are subject
to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the DIR, which includes the following requirements:
1. Each Contractor and subcontractor shall furnish electronically certified payroll records directly to the
Labor Commissioner in accordance with the instructions and requirements posted by DIR on its website
and other sources.
2. The District will have direct and immediate access to the certified payroll records submitted to DIR in
order to monitor compliance, identify suspected violations and respond to Public Records Act requests.
3. At each job site, Contractor shall post the notice(s) required by California Labor Code section 1771.4(a)
(2) and the California Code of Regulations.
4. The District may withhold Contract payments when payroll records are delinquent or inadequate, or not
submitted as required by the Labor Commissioner. The amount withheld shall be limited to those
payments due or estimated to be due to the Contractor or subcontractor whose payroll records are
delinquent or inadequate, plus any additional amount that the Labor Commissioner has reasonable cause
