Executive Summary
Overview
Fleet Services Inc. is pleased to submit this proposal to the City of San Marino for the maintenance, inspection, and repair of its emergency fire apparatus. We understand that the reliability of the City’s fleet—including the Pierce Pumper Trucks and Dodge RAM Rescue Ambulances—is critical to public safety. Our proposal offers a comprehensive service solution designed to maximize uptime and ensure 100% compliance with NFPA 1911 and OEM standards.
Proposed Investment For the services outlined in this RFQ/RFP, Fleet Services Inc. proposes a Standard Rate of $185/hr. After hours $225/hr. for the initial contract term. This pricing includes all semi-annual preventative maintenance and annual NFPA inspections as specified in Section 2.2, ensuring the City has predictable budgeting for its core fleet maintenance.
Statement of Qualifications Fleet Services Inc. is uniquely qualified to partner with the City of San Marino for the following reasons:
• Certified Expertise: We are qualified to work on both Pierce Fire Apparatus and Dodge vehicles, ensuring all work will be done per manufacture specifications. • Strategic Location & Security: Our service facility is located within 49.9 miles of the San Marino Fire Department, exceeding the 50-mile requirement. We provide a secure, fully indoor storage environment for all City apparatus while under our care. • Annual Fire Pump Performance Testing
• Objective In accordance with NFPA 1911 (Current Edition) and ISO requirements, Fleet Services Inc. will perform annual service testing to document that each fire pump can perform at its rated capacity from draft.
• Proven Regional Track Record: With over 30 years of experience specifically servicing Southern California professional fire departments, we possess a deep understanding of the rigorous duty cycles and safety requirements of municipal emergency fleets.
• Rapid Emergency Response: We offer a true 24/7/365 emergency service capability, guaranteeing a 2-hour response time to ensure the City’s frontline apparatus are returned to "In-Service" status as quickly as possible.
Commitment to Quality Beyond standard repairs, Fleet Services Inc. distinguishes itself through proactive warranty management and meticulous documentation. We take full responsibility for pursuing warranty claims on behalf of the City, reducing the administrative burden on Fire Department staff and ensuring the City never pays for repairs covered under manufacturer terms. We are committed to returning every apparatus in clean, safe, and missionready condition.
