Annual Purchase for Vehicle and Equipment Glass Repair and Replacement

Tarrant County is soliciting bids for an annual contract to provide vehicle and equipment glass repair and replacement services for its fleet. The contract is for an initial twelve-month term, with the option for two additional twelve-month renewals upon mutual agreement. Awards will be based on the best price by section, with the county reserving the right to award in its own best interest. Bidders must provide all-inclusive unit pricing covering labor, travel, fuel, shop fees, and delivery. Service is divided into in-store and mobile categories; vendors for sections one and three must maintain a facility within Tarrant County, while vendors for sections two and four must be capable of providing mobile services to any location within the county. Awarded vendors must maintain sufficient staffing and provide a minimum six-month labor warranty. The contract includes strict compliance requirements, including mandatory criminal background checks for personnel accessing county data or facilities and adherence to rigorous data security and confidentiality protocols. Vendors must notify the county of any unauthorized data access within forty-eight hours. Additionally, the county emphasizes equal opportunity through its Historically Underutilized Businesses policy, targeting a 20 percent good faith participation goal. Payment is typically issued within thirty days of receiving a fully documented invoice referencing the appropriate purchase order.
