About this opportunity

The City of Altamonte Springs has issued Invitation to Bid (ITB-25-014-RS) for automotive paint and body works to service its municipal vehicle fleet, covering vehicles ranging from compact sedans to Class 8 heavy-duty trucks. The procurement seeks qualified vendors to provide comprehensive automotive repair services on an annual requirements basis, with two distinct bid categories: Base Bid A for auto and light trucks, and Base Bid B for heavy trucks. Bidders must demonstrate capability to perform services including paint work, frame straightening, and vehicle repairs, with specific requirements including possessing a paint booth, frame straightening machine, and inside storage area within 20 miles of the city's fleet maintenance garage. The bid is due on January 8, 2025, at 11:00 a.m., with a one-year initial contract term and options to renew for four additional one-year periods. Evaluation criteria include hourly labor rates for journeyman and apprentice technicians, percentage markup on parts, vehicle pickup/delivery fees, and compliance with specified technical and regulatory requirements such as using OEM parts and maintaining EPA compliance.

The solicitation does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. The procurement process resulted in three responsive submittals, with two vendors recommended for award: Unique Mobile Car Svc. at $52,125 and AK Investments LLC dba Excel Auto Body at $64,875. Vendors must maintain comprehensive insurance coverage, including workers' compensation, general liability ($1,000,000), auto liability ($1,000,000), and garage keepers liability ($1,000,000). The city plans to distribute work between the two selected vendors based on availability, estimated effort, and complexity to minimize service interruptions. Contractors are required to provide a one-year warranty on completed work and will be paid within 30 days of invoice receipt and work acceptance. The total potential contract value could reach approximately $116,000, with the flexibility to adjust quantities and distribute work strategically across the two awarded vendors throughout the potential five-year contract period.
