Oakland, CA

Oakland Unified School District

Closely coordinated across 12 schools for a seamless power and conduit systems installation.

Value Delivered

Contra Costa Electric performed an enormous electrical power and conduit systems installation project for the Oakland Unified School District (OUSD).

The project required coordination with many agencies within the school district, as well as diligent scheduling, in order to work around regular classes. We received a letter of commendation for the outstanding quality of our work and our ability to bring together these agencies for an exceptionally smooth, problem-free project.

Client Objectives

The scope of work included:

  • Overhead and underground conduit systems between buildings

  • All distribution frame (MDF) and intermediate distribution frame (IDF) closets
  • Over 3,000 category 5E data cables to all classrooms and administration offices
