Clay County is planning to replace two jail transport vehicles. The current vehicles, a 2017 transport van and a 2019 Ford Explorer, are aging and experiencing increasing maintenance issues. The county intends to lease two new Chrysler Pacifica transport vans through Enterprise Fleet Leasing. Following delivery, Code 4 Services will install secure prisoner transport partitions and necessary equipment. This project is currently under review and has been approved for vehicle replacement and partition installation. The work will involve vehicle acquisition, specialized equipment installation for secure transport, and potentially related services for vehicle outfitting. Local contractors, suppliers, and service providers in vehicle outfitting, specialized equipment installation, and potentially fleet maintenance could find opportunities. Engaging early before final specifications and bidding processes are complete may offer a competitive advantage.
