California Fire and Rescue (CAL FIRE) awarded a Non-IT Services contract to Ron Dupratt Ford Inc. on August 18, 2026, with a total contract value of $235. This contract falls under services specifically exempt by statute and comprises two line items: labor services for cutting and programming new keys with verified fob and blade work, billed at $219.19 per hour for one hour of service, and one RTDKEY flip key blank (164-R7978) priced at $14.59 per unit.

The award represents a specialized automotive services engagement focused on key programming and replacement parts. Ron Dupratt Ford Inc. serves as the prime contractor responsible for delivery of these services to CAL FIRE. The contract documents do not specify the place of performance, period of performance beyond the award date, or cumulative contract value details. The minimal contract value and discrete scope suggest this represents either a standalone service request or a component of a broader ongoing service relationship between the contractor and CAL FIRE.
