Overview

Summary

The Las Virgenes Municipal Water District (LVMWD) is seeking Bids for Potable and Reclaimed Water Distribution Controls and Communications Upgrade - Electrical Contractor Services . Bids are to be submitted through the Procurement Portal at https://procurement.opengov.com/portal/lvmwd , no later than 5:00 pm on Wednesday, May 13, 2026 . LVMWD is undertaking a critical infrastructure modernization initiative to upgrade the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and network communication systems for its potable and reclaimed water distribution operations. This project addresses urgent vulnerabilities in legacy systems that are increasingly at risk of failure, while positioning the District to meet modern reliability, security, and performance standards.

The District's water operations encompass 61 remote sites located across difficult terrain. The backbone upgrade will support both potable water and recycled water operations, ensuring the District can provide safe and reliable water supply at all times. This project will touch 10 of those sites, and include validation testing of the proposed backbone strategy. The implementation includes:

Network Infrastructure Foundation: Establishing the wireless backhaul communications system upgrade that will serve as the backbone for all future improvements. This includes comprehensive site surveys, network design, and development of a prioritized roadmap for network upgrade projects.

Electrical Infrastructure Requirements:

• • Installation of new control systems hardware in pre-existing control panels
  • Electrical wiring
  • Radio and telemetry equipment installation and setup

Background

The District has partnered with The Rovisys Company (Rovisys), who is currently engaged in related projects, including planning and design of SCADA-related elements for the future Advanced Water Treatment Facility, demonstrating the integrated nature of these infrastructure improvements.

The relationship with a system integrator acts as an extension of the District's IT and SCADA staff, enabling input on network upgrades, systems design, hardware recommendations, security assessments, IT governance, and capital improvement projects requiring SCADA and IT components.

This RFB represents an opportunity for qualified electrical contractors to contribute to a project of genuine regional importance. The successful vendor will be part of a collaborative effort that enhances public safety, improves operational efficiency, and strengthens infrastructure resilience for years to come. The work requires technical expertise in electrical installation and communications infrastructure, along with the ability to work effectively within the constraints of operational facilities that must remain in service during construction.

The work will demonstrate the value of the comprehensive upgrade approach and establish the foundation for future projects that will extend these improvements throughout the District's service area. Contractors who deliver excellent work on this project may have opportunities to participate in subsequent projects as the District continues its infrastructure modernization program.
