Contractor Bid Registration: CUPCCAC Invitation

Contractor Registration
California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act

The Fresno County Office of Education has elected to become subject to the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Procedures.  The District is inviting all licensed contractors to submit information for inclusion on the District's list of qualified bidders.

What is CUPCCAC?

The California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act is under the umbrella of the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Commission (CUPCCAC) and provides for alternative bidding procedures when an agency performs public project work by contract.

  • (a) Public projects of $45,000 or less may be performed by negotiated contract or by purchase order (PCC 22032(a)). 
  • (b) Public projects of $175,000 or less may be let to contract by the informal bidding procedures (PCC 22032(b)).
  • (c) Public projects of more than $175,000 shall be let to contract by formal bidding procedures (PCC 22032(c))

In November of each year, participating districts place an ad in various construction trade journals and a newspaper of general circulation inviting all licensed contractors to submit the name of their firm to the district for inclusion on the district’s list of qualified bidders for the following calendar year.

The Fresno County Office of Education has completed all the necessary requirements to participate in this alternative bidding process and solicits your firm to register.
