The Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services is requesting quotes for drive-through car wash services for its Adaptive Driving Training vehicle fleet across ten service locations, with quotes due September 4, 2026. The solicitation is structured as a Quick Quote under Alabama's procurement process with a contract term from October 1, 2026, through September 30, 2027, renewable annually to a maximum contract cost of $25,000 over five years.

The scope covers a Limited Fleet Plan service package called "Simply Clean," consisting of Graph-X4 plus Super Shammy, Ceramic plus Super Shammy, and Hot Wax wash options. Service must be available at ADRS's convenience without scheduling constraints across Decatur, Muscle Shoals, Huntsville, Birmingham, Anniston, Tuscaloosa, Montgomery, Auburn, Mobile, and Dothan. The supplier must provide RFID stickers for each of approximately 25 ADT vehicles per month, enabling scan-and-bill tracking to the appropriate account. Some vehicles carry specialized equipment requiring extra care. The supplier assumes no liability for cosmetic damage to external surfaces, including micro-scratches and paint swirls, inherent to drive-through car wash operations.

Pricing must be quoted as a monthly amount for four washes per vehicle per month. Respondents must register in Alabama Buys and submit responses electronically. Suppliers must comply with E-Verify employment verification, Alabama sales tax exemption requirements, and the Beason-Hammon Alabama Taxpayer and Citizen Protection Act. The State reserves the right to conduct cost realism and price reasonableness analyses and may request supplier qualification documentation, including authorization letters and insurance certificates, prior to award.
