MCPD Heavy Towing Rotation

Project Description: Dear Tow Truck Owner,
We are happy to announce a new rotation for heavy duty towing companies. Three (3) companies will be chosen
for this rotation.
Phase 1 of the RFP process will start with a request for any towing company interested in being on Murray City's
PD Rotation List to submit a Letter of Intent (Attached – Phase 1), and a valid business license or other
proof that your towing company is currently in operation. You must be in business for at least six
months prior to bid and provide a valid State Tax impound yard number. Your impound yard and tow trucks must be
in Salt Lake County. This letter will need to be turned in on or before June 4, 2025 by 3:00 pm MST. During
the week of June 4-9, Murray City Police Department will review all received Letters of Intent
and conduct a computerized random drawing to select 3 towing companies to move forward into Phase 2
of the application process.
Those 3 selected companies will then have until June 23, 2025 by 3:00 pm MST, to submit the entire application
packet (Attached – Phase 2). It is important to note that failure to meet this deadline or the minimum
requirements outlined in the RFP will result in disqualification from being included on the pre-approved
towing rotation list until the next request for towing applications is initiated.
I would like to emphasize that all vendors who submit a Letter of Intent will be notified whether
they have been selected to proceed to Phase 2 or not by email on Monday, June 9, 2025. We have
implemented this two-phased approach to alleviate the burden on vendors by allowing them to bypass the
strict process of meeting minimum requirements before the final selection of 3 providers is made.
Furthermore, if one (or more) of the 3 selected vendors fails to meet the minimum requirements of the Phase 2
requirements before the deadline, Murray City will reach out to alternative companies who were ranked 4th, 5th,
6th, and so forth.
We believe that this revised process will enhance efficiency, fairness, and transparency in our procurement
process while also providing an opportunity for a broader pool of towing companies to participate.
It’s important to note that due to the random selection process and the
limited number of providers chosen, submitting a Letter of Intent does not guarantee placement on the
rotation list. Should you have any questions or require further clarification regarding this two-phased RFP
process, please do not hesitate to contact Amandah Maudsley, Murray City Purchasing
Agent, amaudsley@murray.utah.gov.
Thank you for your attention to this matter, and we look forward to your continued participation in Murray
City's procurement processes.
Sincerely,
Amandah Maudsley
