Vehicle Modification Services

Waukesha County is conducting a competitive bid (Bid No. 2025049) for Vehicle Modification Services through the Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC), seeking up to three autobody vendors to provide vehicle modification services for eligible older adults and individuals with disabilities residing in Waukesha County. The procurement will award vendors based on their percentage discount off the NAGS price list and predetermined flat rates for specific jobs. Bidders must submit electronic responses through the county's Bonfire Purchasing Portal by January 8, 2026, at 10:30 AM CDT/CST. Vendors will be responsible for providing all labor and materials necessary for vehicle modifications on an as-needed basis. The contract will have an initial one-year term with options to extend for four additional one-year periods, contingent upon fund appropriation. Evaluation criteria will include pricing structure, with vendors required to charge customers 10 percent of the total modification cost and the ADRC invoicing for the remaining 90 percent, up to a maximum of $7,000.

The procurement does not specify explicit set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Funding for the modifications will be sourced from Wisconsin Department of Transportation grant funds, supplemented by consumer contributions. Vendors must meet specific insurance requirements, including workers' compensation with $100,000 limits per accident, commercial general liability with $500,000 minimums, and automobile liability with $500,000 combined single limits. While no specific award value is explicitly stated, the contract allows for modifications up to $7,000 per project, with consumers responsible for the initial 10 percent and any costs exceeding the $7,000 threshold. Potential vendors must provide proof of financial stability and experience with similar obligations, and the county reserves the right to reject any or all bids and to award contracts separately or in aggregate. The procurement aims to develop a list of preferred providers who can deliver high-quality vehicle modification services to support accessibility for older adults and individuals with disabilities in Waukesha County.
