NIGP 92865: Retrofitting Vehicles to Reduce Emissions and Improve Air Quality (A Complete Service incl. Parts Where Necessary to Meet Specs)

NIGP 92865 Retrofitting Vehicles To Reduce Emissions And Improve Air Quality (Item) covers vehicle maintenance, repair, and parts supply services that state and local governments procure to support fleet operations — work that ranges from routine diagnostics and component repairs to manufacturer recalls and OEM parts procurement across diverse vehicle types and model years. The Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners' recent ITB for Ford-branded vehicle maintenance and repair services illustrates the operational scope: the county is soliciting ongoing and as-needed support for approximately 1,400+ Ford vehicles spanning model years 2006 to 2026, including F-Series pickups, SUVs, passenger cars, commercial trucks, transit vans, and specialty vehicles such as brush trucks and dump trucks. Services include computerized diagnostics, engine and transmission repairs, electrical and brake system work, HVAC and steering repairs, recall work, and 24-hour vehicle security. Work is performed across five fleet service locations. County procurement offices dominate the issuing-body mix in recent activity; the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners has posted this work under an estimated $4.3 million three-year contract requiring Ford Motor Company certification and authorized dealer status.

Recent opportunities show concentrated activity in Florida. The Hillsborough County ITB 26-00420, due October 16, 2026, represents the sole solicitation with detailed scope and specifications. The District of Columbia posted multiple iterations of an FY26 Remote Sensing and Covert Vehicle Project (DOC839108, DOC841139, DOC834720, DOC825582) between June and August 2026, but source documentation provides no scope, budget, or technical detail to assess pursuit viability. Contractors responding to the Hillsborough County work must meet Ford certification requirements at bid submission and throughout the contract term, maintain Commercial General Liability insurance ($1 million to $5 million per occurrence) and Automobile Liability coverage ($300,000 to $1 million combined single limits), and deliver services within ten days of a Purchase Order with emergency response within two hours on-site.
