The City of Salinas is requesting statements of qualifications (SOQs) from qualified contractors to establish an on-call list of pre-qualified contractors for each specialty area to assist City of Salinas in maintaining its facility assets, as these facilities represent considerable public investment. The city will issue facility related work through work orders. To the extent feasible, work orders will be distributed on a fair basis, bearing in mind the goal of meeting the needs of the City and rewarding good performance. Staff may apply criteria such as, but not limited to, timely and accurate performance of Work Order processes, quality construction, timely completion of Work Orders and close-out, safety record, meeting work order goals and objectives, project-specific requirements, and local employment participation. The Facilities Maintenance Division is responsible for the preventive maintenance and minor repair of City-owned buildings and other facilities to ensure they are safe and operational for the public. To maintain its facility assets, the Public Works department desires to retain multiple contracting firms that can provide general contracting or specialty services to City buildings and other facilities on an as-needed basis to enable the City to meet current and future construction and maintenance needs.
