California school district HVAC work carries DSA review, Title 24 energy rules, and state prevailing wage, and a mechanical subcontractor that does not read these terms underprices the job.
What California school HVAC sets
California school HVAC work, posted by districts and on Cal eProcure, is reviewed by the Division of the State Architect, must meet Title 24 energy requirements, and carries DIR registration and prevailing wage. The package sets the equipment, the energy compliance, and the wage terms the sub must price.
Why this scope is easy to misprice
The DSA requirements, the Title 24 compliance, and the prevailing wage sit in the specifications and the state forms, not the title. A sub that prices standard HVAC underprices the California energy and wage burden.
How an AI bid agent reads California school HVAC
An AI bid agent monitors the district and state portals, reads each school HVAC package, and surfaces the equipment, the Title 24 compliance, and the wage terms. The mechanical sub prices the actual job.
You can see how the agent reads a California school package in our AI bid agent demo for MEP subcontractors. It pulls the HVAC scope, Title 24 compliance, and wage terms so the job is priced in full.
