What this contract is for

Agency: County of San Mateo - Sheriff's Office
Location: Redwood City, CA
Scope: State & Local

The San Mateo County Sheriff’s Office is seeking qualified vendors to provide comprehensive Fire and Life Safety Services for its two correctional facilities. This project is intended to strengthen and modernize existing fire and life safety programs by ensuring full regulatory compliance, improving system reliability, and enhancing staff readiness in emergency situations. The selected vendor will play a critical role in supporting life safety operations within a secure custodial environment, where compliance with Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) standards and Cal/OSHA requirements is essential. In addition to performing inspections and audits, the vendor will help refine internal processes, update documentation and emergency planning, and assist in developing a long-term, sustainable approach to equipment maintenance and replacement. This effort is not limited to routine compliance checks; it is an opportunity to partner with the Sheriff’s Office to proactively identify gaps, implement best practices, and enhance coordination with local fire authorities. The County is seeking a vendor that brings both technical expertise and a collaborative approach to ensure that fire and life safety systems, equipment, and training programs are effective, current, and aligned with operational needs.

How to bid on this

This is a contract solicitation, not a grant. To bid, you submit a proposal (usually a price and a description of how you would do the work) directly to the government, through the channel the official listing specifies, not through Oppward.

Make sure your business has an active SAM.gov registration. You cannot be paid on a federal contract without one.
Read the full solicitation on the official listing above, especially the scope of work, not just this summary. Our guide to reading a solicitation walks through what to look for.
This listing has no set-aside restriction ("full and open competition"), meaning any business, large or small, can bid.
Submit your proposal by the deadline, using the exact submission method the official listing states. A technically on-time bid sent the wrong way is often treated as late.
