OC Public Works for the County of Orange is soliciting bids under IFB-080-3174501-AA for vehicle equipment installation, parts, accessories, customization, repair, maintenance, and removal services. These as-needed services cover a diverse fleet including pickup trucks, service trucks, cargo and passenger vans, SUVs, and utility vehicles. The contract requires the contractor to maintain a reasonable stock of commodities and provide itemized quotes for parts, labor, and custom fabrication, which must be approved in writing before work begins. All workmanship is warranted for at least one year from acceptance, and the contractor must ensure all equipment is tested and the work area is cleared of debris before the vehicle is released to the County. Evaluation is based on responsiveness, responsibility, price, and experience, with the awarded labor rate serving as a primary price component. A five percent preference deduction, capped at $100,000, is applied to confirmed OCLSB or DVBE bidders during evaluation. Bidders must provide a valid UEI number, D-U-N-S number, and proof of good standing with the California Secretary of State, along with a signed W-9 and a Campaign Contribution Disclosure Form. The contract mandates the appointment of a Project Manager, the provision of faithful performance and labor and material payment bonds, and adherence to net thirty day payment terms. All submissions must be made electronically via the County's online bidding system.
