Transmissions Services MVA

The Town of Mooresville, North Carolina, is seeking to establish a Master Vendor Agreement (MVA-2025-31) for transmission repair and rebuild services for its municipal fleet assets. The procurement aims to create a pool of qualified vendors who can provide comprehensive diagnostic, repair, and rebuild services for town vehicles, with a specific focus on transmission work. Vendors must submit detailed qualifications by July 11, 2025, at 12:00 pm, including a quote for a specific service scenario involving a 2024 Ford Explorer PPV with a 10R80 10-speed transmission. The evaluation criteria will prioritize vendors based on availability, price, and quality of work, with a preference for local businesses located within six miles of the town's operations and fleet building. Required submissions include a current Certificate of Insurance, W-9, authorized signatory form, three references, accounts payable contact information, and proof of North Carolina business registration. The initial contract term will be 36 months, with an option to renew for an additional two years. The Town reserves the right to terminate the contract at any time without explanation and may select multiple vendors for this master agreement.

While the solicitation does not explicitly outline specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises, it does demonstrate a preference for local businesses. The contract does not specify incumbent vendors or existing technology infrastructure that requires integration. The procurement does not provide a definitive budget range or award value, as vendors will be contacted on an as-needed basis to submit quotes for specific transmission service jobs. The town will select vendors based on their capabilities and proposed solutions for each individual service request. Vendors must comply with comprehensive insurance requirements, including Commercial General Liability coverage of $500,000 to $1,000,000, Commercial Automobile Insurance (if applicable), and Workers' Compensation Insurance for businesses with three or more employees. The insurance requirements mandate that insurers be licensed in North Carolina with an A.M. Best's Insurance Guide rating of A-VII or better, with the Town of Mooresville named as an additional insured on all policies.
