245014 Intent to Award.pdf

This document is a Notification of Intent to Award from the Contracts and Procurement Division of the City of Salem, Oregon in response to RFP No. 245014 for Vehicle Body Repair and Painting services. The City intends to award non-exclusive contracts to Los Muertos Custom LLC and Salem Auto Body on May 16, 2024 to provide vehicle body repair and painting services on an "as needed" basis for the City's Fleet Services Division. The resulting agreements will be one-year contracts with up to four one-year renewal options.

The City estimates spending approximately $150,000 annually on automotive body work under these contracts, but this is not a binding guarantee. Proposers must have a repair facility located within the City of Salem, provide original manufacturer or certified aftermarket parts, meet industry standard turnaround times, and comply with the City's non-discrimination policies. The RFP does not specify any set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, and the current incumbent vendors or contractors are not listed. The RFP also does not provide any information on existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
