Overview

Summary

The City of Pasadena invites proposals from qualified vendors who can furnish the City with a Police Crisis Negotiation Team (CNT) Van and/or upfitting as described in the specifications of this document. The CNT Van will serve as an on-site mobile field asset for the Pasadena Police Department to provide support to specially trained Staff responding to and managing critical incidents.

This project may be split into distinct awards for vehicle production and upfitting. Final award will be based on lowest price bid(s).

To be eligible for consideration, proposals must be presented in accordance with the instructions defined and within the time frame specified. It shall be the responsibility of the selected vendor(s) to meet all conditions and specifications set forth in this solicitation.

Background

The City of Pasadena is a diverse community encompassing approximately 22.5 square miles with a residential population of about 150,000 residents. The population during the day in increases to over 200,000 people working in and visiting Pasadena. Two major freeways and a regional public transportation light rail line cross through the city limits. Pasadena is home to the iconic Rose Bowl Stadium, NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Caltech, and is host for multiple significant large-scale events including the Annual New Year’s Tournament of Roses Parade and Collegiate Rose Bowl Games. The City will also be hosting competitive sporting events during the 2028 LA Olympics.

The new CNT Van will serve the Police Department in several capacities, including assisting in critical incidents such as hostage negotiations, search warrant operations, lockdown and sheltering incidents, and task force operations. Currently, the CNT team operates out of a medium-size SUV which is insufficient for CNT operations and related training. This vehicle is unable to contain and secure all of the specialized CNT equipment, which includes (5) cable spools, several Pelican cases containing throw phones, electronics and command consoles, (8) folding chairs, (2) folding tables, (2) Easy-Up canopies, a portable generator, office supplies and more. A new van will provide adequate storage and workspace allowing multiple CNT personnel to more efficiently train, respond to and manage critical incidents involving potentially life-saving situations.
