On August 1, 2017, the SCCCD Board of Trustees passed a resolution to become subject to the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act (CUPCCAA). In conjunction with Board Policy 6350, these new CUPCCAA procedures will help to promote an increase in procurement opportunities for local and diverse construction contractors and consultants.

Under CUPCCAA, the district is required to create and maintain a list of qualified construction contractors by the category of work performed. Each year in November, the district will publicly invite licensed contractors to submit their information and qualifications for inclusion on the list. To pre-qualify with State Center Community College District as a CUPCCAA contractor, please register at https://PlanetBids.com.

Contractor DIR Requirements

Senate Bill 854 requires all contractors and subcontractors meet minimum qualification requirements and register with the Department of Industrial Relations (DIR) in order to be eligible to bid and work on public works projects. Public works refers to construction, alteration, demolition, installation, or repair work (including maintenance) done under contract and paid for by public funds.

A valid DIR Registration ID number will be required from contractors and subcontractors prior to the award of any contract.

Performance and Payment Bonds

State Center Community College District requires that both a performance bond and payment bond be required on all public works contracts involving an expenditure in excess of $25,000.00 and must be in place before any payment can be made to the Contractor. The amount of the bond shall be 100% of the contract amount.
