DISCUSSION
The Public Works Agency’s Fleet Services Division (Fleet) is responsible for the
purchase, maintenance, repair, and replacement of vehicles, trucks, and various
maintenance equipment. Fleet is assisting the Parks Maintenance Division with the
purchase of a Ford Transit T-350 Plumbers van to store plumbing parts and equipment,
to address plumbing/irrigation related repairs, and to address emergencies throughout
the park system.
Santa Ana Ordinance No. NS-2312 authorizes the City to utilize purchase contracts for
any public agency utilizing a competitive bid process. Sourcewell (formerly National Joint
Powers Alliance), awarded a contract to National Auto Fleet Group (Contract No. 091521-
NAF) for procurement of Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUVs, Cab Chassis, & Other Vehicles as a
result of open competitive bidding on behalf of its members, which includes government
agencies. Utilizing the contract awarded to National Auto Fleet Group allows the City to
make purchases through November 8, 2025, and is in accordance with the City’s existing
Purchasing Guidelines. This purchase order replaces previously approved and
authorized purchase by the City Council (Specification No. 22-063) for purchase of
vehicles on June 17, 2022.
