Summary

The Aviation and Public Works departments operate a diverse fleet with vehicles ranging from passenger vehicles, light duty to heavy duty trucks, emergency vehicles and off road equipment. These contractors will be responsible for making general body repairs resulting from accidents and/or vandalism to ensure that City vehicles and equipment are professionally repaired and mechanically safe for operation.

 

Procurement Information

Invitation for Bid 23-FSD-037 was conducted in accordance with Administrative Regulation 3.10. Five offers were received on Dec. 14, 2022 by the Public Works Department. The offers were evaluated based on price, responsiveness to all specifications, terms and conditions, and responsibility to provide the required services, with two groups receiving no bids. One offer was deemed non-responsive due to the inability to provide the required certifications. For Group I and II, the low bid offers were determined by the total dollar amount of the estimate on the bid submittal form, and Group V was determined by hourly rate. Due to the large volume of repair work, multiple vendors are being recommended for contract award.
