CONTRACTOR REGISTRATION APPLICATION

CALIFORNIA UNIFORM PUBLIC CONSTRUCTION COST ACCOUNTING ACT

CUPCCAA REGISTRATION FORM INFORMATION

The Berryessa Union School District has elected to become subject to the California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Procedures. The District is inviting all licensed contractors to submit their information for inclusion on the District’s CUPCCAA Registered Contractors List for the 2024 calendar year.

WHAT IS CUPCCAA?

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.

Public projects of $60,000 or less may be performed by negotiated contract or by purchase order [PCC22032(a)]
Public projects of $200,000 or less may be let to contract by the informal procedures set forth in the Act [PCC22032(b)]
Public projects of more than $200,000 shall be let to contract by formal bidding procedures [PCC22032(c)]

In November of each year, participating Districts place an ad in various construction trade journals inviting all licensed contractors to submit the name of their firm to the District for inclusion on the District’s CUPCCAA Registered Contractors List for the following calendar year.

The Berryessa Union School District has completed all the necessary requirements to participate in this alternative bidding process and solicits your firm to register.
