Pre-Advertisement Notice for Glass Repair & Services

The City of Atlanta Department of Parks and Recreation is conducting a prequalification phase leading to an Invitation for Bid (IFB) for glass repair, replacement, installation, and tinting services across municipal vehicles and equipment, with a Statement of Qualifications (SOQ) due June 18, 2026. The procurement will evaluate vendor experience, team qualifications, and certifications before advancing qualified firms to the formal IFB stage.

The scope spans four service groups: windshield, side glass, rear glass, quarter glass, and mirror repair and replacement for all fleet types; complete glass installation with removal, surface preparation, and leak testing using OEM glass for Atlanta Police Department vehicles; custom fabrication and installation of acrylic, Lexan, and polycarbonate materials for specialized equipment; and window and windshield tinting compliant with Georgia law. Vendors must supply at least 80% of requested items within 24 hours and the remaining 20% within 72 hours. Non-specialty quotes are due within 48 business hours; non-emergency repairs must be completed within 3–5 business days; emergency and public safety vehicle repairs require response within 48 hours; and specialty equipment repairs within 72 hours.

Services will be performed at four Office of Fleet Services locations and two Airport Shop locations throughout Atlanta. Vendors must maintain a minimum 95% on-time repair completion rate, employ at least two certified technicians with a minimum of two years of experience and acceptable certifications from AGSC/NGA, I-CAR, or manufacturers, and supply documented evidence of supply chain capacity. All products must be identified by manufacturer part numbers; OEM glass is required for police vehicles unless otherwise approved. The contract term includes a minimum one-year warranty covering labor and materials. Subcontracting is prohibited without written City approval, though specialty service subcontracting may be considered with prior written approval. A Pre-Solicitation Conference will be held to provide additional details.
