Hello,

I hope this email finds you all healthy and safe.

Due to the economic downturn and the retirement of nearly half of our Technicians, the City of Ventura is performing an analysis of private versus public fleet to ensure we are operating at the most efficient and cost effective level. At this time, we are looking at outsourcing preventive maintenance for light and medium duty vehicles.

Do you have any information that you can share regarding this type of analysis and the process for implementing this change? Did you privatize the entire maintenance program or just a portion of it?

Any information that you can share will be appreciated.

Thank you
