FILE NUMBER
Award contracts for vehicle body repair for a one-year period, with
provision for two, one-year renewals, in the annual aggregate amount not to
exceed $150,000 with the following Santa Ana vendors:
Doffo Automotive, Inc.
Eleganze Auto Body Shop
Kelly's Body Shop Inc.
DISCUSSION
1 Day Paint & Body Centers, Inc.
Top Finish Collision Center Inc.
The Finance and Management Services Agency Fleet Maintenance Division is
responsible for the maintenance and repair of approximately 600 vehicles,
including police patrol sedans. Body, frame and certain mechanical and
electrical system repairs are often contracted out. The contracts permit
prompt and efficient repair of vehicles with a minimum interruption of
service.
The City's intent is to establish contracts with Santa Ana vendors for
vehicle body repair. The notice inviting bids was advertised on September
27, 2007, and bids were solicited. 13 Invitations For Bid were mailed to
Santa Ana vendors and five bids were received. Three of the respondents
meet technician professional certification requirements (Doffo Automotive,
Eleganze Auto Body and Kelly's Body Shop), while 1 Day Paint & Body Centers
and Top Finish Collision Center currently do not.
Staff recommends awarding contracts to the five local vendors, with the
caveat that only those with certification will be offered the opportunity
to competitively quote on each job. The uncertified vendors will be
notified of upcoming jobs for quote once proof of certification is provided
to the City. The aggregate annual amount is based upon past usage and
staff projections for this contract period.
