Preventative Maintenance & Inspection Services for District Solar Power Systems

The San Diego Unified School District is seeking qualified contractors to provide comprehensive preventive‑maintenance, inspection, and technical‑support services for its fleet of photovoltaic (PV) solar power systems located across district schools. The work includes routine visual and infrared inspections, performance testing of modules, inverters, combiner boxes, and monitoring equipment, as well as detailed reporting and recommendations for corrective actions. Contractors must hold current California C‑10 Electrical Contractor and C‑46 Solar Contractor licenses, maintain active DIR registration, and comply with prevailing‑wage requirements. The contract is a five‑year, firm‑fixed‑price arrangement, with an estimated 23 sites serviced per year, and the District will award to the lowest total‑cost responsible bidder. • Perform preventive‑maintenance inspections, thermal‑imaging, inverter cleaning, and system diagnostics on PV arrays ranging from 28 kW to >1.2 MW. • Submit electronic maintenance reports within ten business days of each service and provide fully‑burdened labor rates (all‑inclusive of travel, tools, equipment, etc.). • Meet mandatory licensing (C‑10, C‑46), DIR registration, OSHA/CAL‑OSHA safety standards, and California prevailing‑wage rules; provide non‑collusion, insurance, and background‑check documentation.
