Specifications include, but are not limited to: The City of Corona is requesting Prequalification Statements from interested Design-Build (D-B) Entities for the VHF Radio Network and Microwave System Replacement Project. The City plans to select a D-B Entity for the Project through a two-step competitive selection process. This request for Prequalification Statements is the first step in that process. The D-B Entity must possess appropriately licensed contracting, architectural, and engineering services as needed for a design-build contract. City will consider teams consisting of a general contractor with contractual relationships with entities providing the other required licenses and capable of providing all services required for the Project. The D-B Entity is expected to have design-build experience with projects similar in size, scope, type, and complexity of cost. The purpose of the Project is to select a qualified and experienced vendor to plan, design, build, implement, test, and commission into service a VHF conventional analog simulcast land mobile radio (LMR) network and a public safety-grade microwave system hereafter referred to as City of Corona Radio Network. The City’s existing VHF LMR network is currently operating transmission equipment that is at its end of life, and this network is intended to deliver modern and standardized LMR and Microwave equipment that can be sustained over the next 15-20 years. The VHF radio system will be integrated into the City’s dispatch subsystems.
