Body
Dear Sir:
On May 31, 2017, a request for proposal 17-RFP-28, Fleet Vehicle Maintenance Management Services for a 36-Month Period was advertised and responses were received on June 23, 2017.
One hundred (100) firms were notified of this request for proposal (RFP) and seventeen (17) firms requested proposal documents. The tabulation of proposers is as follows:
AUTOMOTIVE RENTALS, INC.
LEASE PLAN U.S.A., INC.
ROKAITIS INDUSTRIES, INC.
The General Administration Department reviewed the proposals and was directed to look at alternative ways to manage the fleet of vehicles. Due to the lapse of time from the receipt of the Best and Final Offers on August 25, 2017, all proposals should be rejected. The Director of Procurement and Materials Management concurs. Therefore, all proposals received are rejected in the public’s best interest. The Director of Procurement and Materials Management has informed all bidders of this action.
The RFP will be re-advertised.
Respectfully Submitted, Darlene A. LoCascio, Director of Procurement and Materials Management, DAL:SEB:st
