Automotive Repair Parts and/or Services (Continuous)

The City of Temple is seeking qualified suppliers to enter into ongoing service agreements for the repair and maintenance of light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles, along with related products and services, supporting the Fleet Services Department and other City departments as needed. The City maintains a fleet of vehicles and equipment, with an in-house parts room and inventory, performing maintenance both internally and via external vendors. This solicitation aims to establish competitive contracts that offer a broad spectrum of automotive services and products, streamline procurement by reducing the need for multiple quotes or bids, maintain a diverse vendor pool to address various automotive needs, and lower administrative expenses through standardized ordering and delivery processes. The bid is divided into two independent categories: one for products only and another for both services and products. Suppliers may submit bids at any time until September 30, 2027. The contract encompasses continuous solicitation under NAICS code 811310 and is managed by the City of Temple’s Purchasing Department in Texas. Firms that previously submitted responses via the Mercell e-bidding portal are not required to resubmit through the Bonfire platform. The overall goal is to optimize fleet maintenance efficiency, achieve cost savings, and simplify vendor management through consolidated service agreements.
