CIW_18-002_Evidence_Towing.pdf

This document is a Competition Impracticable Request/Disposition Form from the Arizona Department of Public Safety, located in Phoenix, Arizona. The form is specifically labeled as C.I.W. 18-002 and is for procurement over $100,000, prepared by Robert DeLucia, a Senior Procurement Analyst in the Procurement Division, on 12/5/2017.

The document seeks procurement authorization for Evidence/Seizure Towing services, with an annual price of $80,000. The procurement is justified due to unique competitive constraints in towing services for law enforcement evidence handling. The proposed approach involves utilizing the same tow firms on the Tow Service Certification Agreement, which will enable faster scene clearance times and reduce secondary accident risks. The pricing is based on a October 2016 survey and 2014 low firm cost structure analysis, with rates established to ensure competitive pricing. The contract duration will align with the expiration of the DPS District Tow Service Certification Agreement, and the procurement process is designed to minimize waiting times for evidence tows while maintaining efficient accident scene management.
