The California Employment Development Department (EDD) is seeking a qualified contractor to upgrade and install alarm system dialer panels across three Northern California Unemployment Insurance Appeals Board (CUIAB) facilities (San Jose, Fresno, and Salinas). The work includes providing Radionix intrusion‑control panels, cellular communicators, eight‑zone expanders, programming the panels to existing zone configurations, activating cellular service, conducting site inspections, and cleaning up daily. The contract runs from September 1 2026 through June 30 2027, with a tight bid window (release June 16, questions due June 18, bid deadline June 30) and a public opening on July 2. Small‑business and DVBE preferences are available, and bidders must hold C‑7 or C‑10 contractor licenses as well as a BSIS alarm‑company operator license. • Install Radionix B8512G panels, B444‑V2 cellular communicators, and B208 eight‑zone expanders at each of the three sites. • Provide programming, site inspections, safety‑hazard reporting, and daily clean‑up; include one‑year warranty on workmanship and materials. • Must meet licensing (C‑7/C‑10), security‑operator, equipment certification, insurance, and prevailing‑wage requirements; small‑business/DVBE incentives can reduce evaluated net bid price.
