The City of Escondido is seeking proposals from qualified consultants to conduct a comprehensive evaluation and analysis of its fleet replacement funding, management, and operations. The project involves reviewing the City’s current fleet program, including organizational structure, policies, standard operating procedures, and performance activities. The selected consultant will assess vehicle replacement financing strategies, fleet composition, maintenance practices, operational efficiency, and environmental best practices, including compliance with California’s Advanced Clean Fleets Regulation. The scope includes data analysis, stakeholder interviews, onsite observations, and review of historical funding trends. The consultant will develop recommendations to optimize fleet size, improve cost efficiency, enhance maintenance operations, and implement sustainable vehicle strategies, such as alternative-fuel adoption. A final deliverable will be a comprehensive report outlining findings, financial projections, and long-term strategies for fleet replacement and management.
