What is CUPCCAA (California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act)?

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 $60,000 or less
may be performed by negotiated
contract or by purchase order (PCC
22032(a)).

(b) Public projects of $200,000 or less
may be let to contract by the informal
procedures set forth in the Act (PCC
22032(b)).

(c) Public projects of more than
$200,000 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 Fairfield-Suisun Unified School District has completed all the necessary requirements to participate in this alternative bidding process and solicits your firm to register.
