DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s Parks, Fleet, and Facilities Division is responsible for the acquisition, maintenance, repair, and replacement of vehicles, trucks, and maintenance equipment. The existing City fleet comprises of over 700 vehicles and equipment that require preventative maintenance and unscheduled repair services. Such unscheduled City Council 41 – 1 2/20/2024

repairs routinely require outside experts to diagnose and provide repair services. This ensures the highest level of fleet service and support to the City’s various departments.

The Request for Proposals (RFP) No. 23-098 was issued on August 29, 2023 on the City’s online bid management and publication system, Planetbids. A summary of vendor participation and results is as follows:
76 Vendors notified
2 Santa Ana vendors notified
25 Vendors downloaded the bid packet
15 Proposals received
3 Proposals received from Santa Ana
vendors
Proposals were solicited, opened on October 26, 2023, and evaluated. Fifteen proposals were submitted by the RFP deadline and 11 were determined to be responsible, responsive to the specifications, and met the City’s requirements. The proposals submitted by Leon’s Transmissions, Mr. D’s Automotive, Pomeroy’s Muffler Inc., and Theodore Robins Ford were deemed non-responsive due to incomplete submissions and did not meet RFP specifications. The selection committee with experience in fleet automotive, motorcycle, truck, and heavy equipment repairs evaluated all proposals.

Staff recommends awarding agreements to the 11 responsible, responsive firms to ensure sufficient resources are available based on the City’s projected needs. The proposals submitted by the selected firms demonstrated the necessary expertise, capacity, and experience in one to all four repair categories as specified in the RFP.

Additionally, the rates provided by the firms are reasonable, within industry standard, and provide the best value for the City.

Local Outreach Efforts
The Purchasing Division advertised this project on the City’s online bid management and publication system, which directly notified two Santa Ana vendors. Additionally, Purchasing Staff performed supplemental outreach by personally contacting recommended local vendors by telephone and email to notify them of the bidding opportunity, provide registration instructions, and other general information about the bidding process. Three vendors downloaded the RFP and submitted a proposal for consideration.

FISCAL IMPACT
Funding is available in the FY 2023-24 budget and funding for subsequent fiscal years will be included in the proposed budgets for City Council consideration. The following table summarizes the funds budgeted and available for expenditure to deliver agreement services.
