Description
The California Highway Patrol is procuring 24 × 7 evidence‑impound towing and secure vehicle‑storage services for its Tracy Area Office. The contract is a fixed‑price ceiling of $60,000, with payment based on actual rates submitted by the vendor for tow, storage, and call‑out inspections. The work period runs from 1 December 2026 to 30 November 2029, with the potential for extensions. Bidders must be a CHP‑approved rotation‑tow provider, maintain extensive insurance coverage (minimum $1 M per occurrence), and meet stringent security clearances (driver‑license and fingerprint checks). Preference incentives are available for small‑business, veteran‑owned, and DVBE participants, though participation is optional. All proposals must be mailed or hand‑delivered by 2 PM on 8 September 2026.
• Provide 24/7 towing of impounded evidence vehicles across four tow‑rate categories (light, medium, heavy, rotator).
• Offer secure storage of vehicles for up to 365 days per vehicle, meeting defined security standards (solid walls/roof or fenced area with razor/barbed wire).
• Submit monthly inventory reports, maintain required insurance, and ensure all personnel clear background and fingerprint checks.
• Optional preference adjustments (SB/MB, non‑SB subcontractor, DVBE, NVSA) may reduce the effective bid price by up to 10 %.
• No electronic submissions; bids must be delivered in hard copy to the Sacramento address by the deadline.
