Who We Help / In shop only

Municipal and Government Fleet Repair

Municipal work adds procurement to every other constraint. Purchase orders, documented scope, per unit invoicing and public accountability all matter, and a shop that cannot handle that paperwork creates work for a department that already has enough.

A public works fleet manager is spending public money and has to be able to account for it. That means documented scope, auditable pricing and a purchase order process that works.

Published labor rates help here more than anywhere else, because an auditable rate card is far easier to defend internally than a shop assertion.

Who does this cover?

Every kind of public sector fleet running vehicles we work on.

  • City and county governments
  • School districts
  • Fire departments
  • Police departments and law enforcement
  • Public works departments
  • Parks and recreation departments
  • Water and sewer utilities
  • Transit and transportation agencies

How does procurement work?

Standard purchase order process. Each unit is estimated separately against posted rates, itemised by operation, and invoiced individually so it tracks against its own PO and cost centre.

The published rate card matters for audit. A repair spend defended against a public rate sheet is a much shorter conversation than one defended against a quote nobody else can verify.

What about emergency and specialty vehicles?

Fire engines, ambulances, police vehicles and command units all carry upfit equipment that has to be documented and correctly reinstalled. Emergency lighting, sirens, partitions and mounting all get catalogued during removal.

Downtime on these is a service delivery issue rather than a cost issue, and we sequence accordingly. What we cannot do is engine, drivetrain or DOT inspection work, so on a unit needing both you will have two suppliers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you work with purchase orders?

Yes. Each unit is estimated and invoiced separately so it tracks against its own PO and cost centre. Standard municipal procurement is routine here.

Can you provide documentation for audit?

Yes. Itemised estimates against published labor rates, which is considerably easier to defend internally than a quote nobody outside can verify.

Do you handle emergency vehicle upfit equipment?

Yes. Emergency lighting, sirens, partitions and mounting are catalogued during removal and reinstalled. Lighting installation runs $400 to $3,500.

Do you perform DOT inspections?

No. Body, paint, structural and equipment installation only. No engine work, no drivetrain work, no DOT inspections.
