DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency (PWA) is responsible for the acquisition, maintenance, repair,
and replacement of City vehicles, trucks, and maintenance equipment that at times
require auto body repair work stemming from collisions and restoration maintenance,
such as painting and refurbishing. While the City's Fleet Services staff and facilities are
specialized for vehicle preventative maintenance and mechanical repairs, auto body
repair work requires specific equipment, regulated facilities, and is a specialized trade.
Establishing aggregate purchase order contracts for vehicle body repairs is necessary
to ensure the City's fleet remains safe, in operational condition, and presentable for
daily use across multiple City departments. Auto body and collision repair services are
required on an as -needed basis and include, but are not limited to, general body and
collision repair, dent repair, component replacement of exterior and interior body
elements, glass repair and replacement, window tinting, and full or partial vehicle
painting. The City currently utilizes aggregate purchase order contracts with Kelly's
Body Shop and Cosmetic Care, Inc. for these services, which are set to expire March
16, 2026. Historically, the City spends an average of $330,000 annually on auto body
repair services.

Invitation for Bids (IFB) No. 25-139 was advertised on December 4, 2025 on the City's
online bid management and publication system, PlanetBids. A summary of vendor
participation and results is as follows:
107 Vendors notified
17 Santa Ana vendors notified
11 Vendors downloaded the bid packet
2 Responsive Bids received
2 Responsive Bids received from Santa Ana vendors
Bids were opened on January 8, 2026, and evaluated (Exhibit 1). Two bids were
submitted by the IFB deadline and both bids were determined to be responsive to the
specifications and met the City's requirements. Kelly's Body Shop has provided vehicle
body repair services to the City for over 15 years and has demonstrated reliable and
quality work, consistently meeting or exceeding expectations. Although this will be the
City's first time contracting with Classic Collision Santa Ana, the local vendor is a
nationwide provider with more than 35 years of experience delivering high -quality
collision repair services. Staff recommends awarding aggregate purchase order
contracts to both responsive bidders to ensure flexibility to provide timely services,
minimizing vehicle downtime and maintaining continuity of City operations. The
proposed annual allocation accounts for rate increases and increased demand for
repairs.
