BACKGROUND

DWSD Fleet Operations is responsible for keeping all 552 Ford registered department vehicles in reliable and in working order based on the Fleet Final Inventory List dated March 14, 2017.  In order to maintain the vehicles, services and parts are required.  Much of the maintenance of vehicles is performed in-house which, requires manufacturer-specific parts. In addition to these parts, there are times when vehicles will need to be sent to the vendor for repair and maintenance.

 

JUSTIFICATION

 

The amount was originally projected based on one of the previous contracts and has recently been revised based on historical repair statistics, maintenance records, and current fiscal year consumption along with the remaining lifetime of the equipment.  This two year contract will provide parts, maintenance and repair services for all of DWSD and GLWA’s Ford vehicles.
