About this file

This Attachment document details the Standard of Quality for Target Parts (OEM & Non-Proprietary) for the City of Tampa's Fleet Maintenance Division (FMD), covering a comprehensive range of automotive parts and supplies. The document outlines acceptable quality standards for various automotive component categories including air conditioning parts, belts and hoses, brake parts, charging system parts, chemicals and cleaners, cooling system parts, driveline parts, electrical parts, exhaust system parts, filters, ignition system parts, miscellaneous accessories, tire supplies, oils, lubricants, coolants, and suspension and steering parts. For each category, the document specifies a preference for original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts and provides a list of acceptable OEM equivalent brands.

The standard of quality emphasizes that all products must meet or exceed manufacturer specifications as directed by the Fleet Maintenance Division. The document indicates a comprehensive approach to parts procurement, allowing flexibility in sourcing while maintaining strict quality control. The City of Tampa currently spends approximately $8 million annually on parts, with an existing inventory of about $1.5 million managed by the current contractor. The attachment serves as a critical reference for potential contractors, providing clear guidelines on the expected quality and acceptable brands for automotive parts across multiple categories, which will support the City's recent expansion to five new fleet maintenance facilities.
