TITLE: Agreement with Airwave Communications Enterprises, Inc. for
Police Vehicle Customization Services
ABSTRACT:
The Police Department requests City Council approval for a Professional Services
Agreement (Agreement) with Airwave Communication Enterprises, Inc., for Police
Department Vehicle Customization Services. Airwave was selected through a detailed
Request for Proposals (RFP) process conducted by the City of Newport Beach (City)
Finance Department. The requested agreement has a five-year term with a total
not -to -exceed cost of $875,000.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
a) Determine this action is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) and 15060(c)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines because
this action will not result in a physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly;
and
b) Approve a Professional Services Agreement with Airwave Communications
Enterprises, Inc., for Police Department Vehicle Customization Services in an amount
not -to -exceed $875,000, and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the
Agreement.
DISCUSSION:
Vehicle Customization Services Need
The Newport Beach Police Department (NBPD) has approximately 120 vehicles in its
fleet, many of which are some type of marked police unit (i.e. patrol and traffic vehicles,
motorcycles, etc.). As new vehicles are procured, specialized equipment — such as police
radio, lighting, computer and camera systems — needs to be installed in the units. Existing
vehicles may also require retrofitting or the addition of new equipment during special
projects. Police vehicle builds are unique, requiring subject matter expertise with
equipment installation and modifications of factory -manufactured standards. Such
installations and modifications are also labor-intensive tasks.

While the NBPD employs two in-house police mechanics to handle routine inspection,
maintenance and repair of the fleet, it is necessary to obtain outside vendor assistance
to complete initial builds and make significant modifications to existing rolling stock.
RFP Prnr.Pcc
Using specifications and service requirements provided by the Police Department,
Purchasing Division staff issued a formal RFP solicitation, No. 23-42, for Vehicle
Customization Services. The RFP was posted on the City's public procurement system
(PlanetBids) and distributed directly to known providers of these services.
This RFP was evaluated in two phases. Phase 1, the Technical Review, involved an
evaluation panel reviewing each proposal and rating them on technical factors such as:
• Qualifications and references
• Demonstrated experience and subject matter expertise
• Ability to provide requested services
The RFP instructed proposers that only those proposals earning a minimum of 70% of
the available points from Phase 1 would be eligible to advance to Phase 2 (the Cost
Evaluation), in which Purchasing staff would compare and calculate the costs from each
proposal. Only two of the initial four proposers scored high enough on the technical
evaluation to proceed to the cost evaluation. The results of the panel scoring for the
two qualifying proposers can be found under the Technical Review section in the table
below, along with Purchasing's Cost Evaluation scoring:

Conclusion of RFP Process and Panel Recommendation
Following the RFP procurement evaluation and review process, the evaluation panel
identified Airwave Communications Enterprises, Inc., as the highest -qualified proposer
and most effective provider of vehicle customization services. Airwave has been in
business since 2000, possesses the facilities, staff and subject matter expertise required
to provide the needed services, and currently provides similar services for a variety of
Orange County and Los Angeles County law enforcement agencies, comparable to the
Newport Beach Police Department. Staff recommends the City Council approve the
five-year Vehicle Customization Services Agreement with Airwave Communications
Enterprises, Inc.

FISCAL IMPACT:
The budget for Fiscal Year 2022-23 includes approximately $69,000 in available funding
for this agreement. Sufficient funding for this agreement will be included in subsequent
budgets in the year in which services are expected to be rendered over the next five
years, which will be expensed to the Equipment NOC account in the Police Department,
75304-911024.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
Staff recommends the City Council find this action is not subject to the California
Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15060(c)(2) (the activity will not
result in a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment)
and 15060(c)(3) (the activity is not a project as defined in Section 15378) of the CEQA
Guidelines, California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Chapter 3, because it has no
potential for resulting in physical change to the environment, directly or indirectly.
