About this file
This is a question and answer document for RFP 25000000142 issued by the State of Michigan for Statewide Towing Dispatch and Services for the Michigan State Police (MSP). Questions were due January 16, 2025, with first round answers provided on January 14, 2025, and final answers anticipated to be posted by January 21, 2025. The RFP seeks to establish a contract for third-party towing management services across the state, with 27,207 dispatched services recorded in 2024.
The contract will not incur direct costs to the State as all costs will be paid by Michigan citizens based on the contractor's quoted rates. The contractor is responsible for setting contract fees based on provider costs, administration overhead, and profit, with bidders required to provide percentage breakdowns of proposed fees. The contractor must determine their own rotation scheme while prioritizing dispatch from the nearest provider whenever possible. Services will be charged at the same quoted rate within each district regardless of which service provider is dispatched, though the State does not guarantee any minimum volume of service requests.
