The Colton Joint Unified School District is establishing two pools of “lease‑leaseback” contractors to provide both pre‑construction services (design review, cost estimating, scheduling, value‑engineering, constructability) and construction services under a guaranteed‑maximum‑price (GMP) arrangement for a series of school‑facility projects funded by bond measures. Contractors must be pre‑qualified, hold a California Class B (or higher) contractor license, and demonstrate experience with at least three prior lease‑leaseback projects meeting the appropriate dollar thresholds ($5 M+ for the ≤ $10 M pool, $10 M+ for the > $10 M pool). The scope includes full project lifecycle management, coordination with the district’s architect/engineer, monthly progress and cash‑flow reporting, bonding and insurance compliance, prevailing‑wage adherence, and a skilled‑and‑trained workforce plan. • Two qualification pools based on project size (≤ $10 M and > $10 M). • Minimum experience: 3 lease‑leaseback projects of $5 M+ (Pool A) or $10 M+ (Pool B) in the past 5 years. • Required pre‑qualification submission by Nov 25 2025; SOQ submission by Dec 4 2025. • Pre‑construction services: design‑review, cost estimating, CPM scheduling, constructability, value‑engineering. • Construction services: GMP contract, subcontractor management, open‑book accounting, safety, quality control, warranty. • Financial guarantees: 100 % performance & payment bonds, extensive liability & workers’ comp insurance, retention 5 %. • Compliance: prevailing‑wage, DIR registration, fingerprint/background checks for staff with student contact, EO, drug‑free certification. • Funding sourced from Measure BB and Measure G bonds (total > $400 M).
