Urgent Requirement: Emergency Repair Mission Following a Heavy Rainstorm — In summer 2025, continuous heavy rainfall in a district of Jiaxing damaged multiple road facilities, causing streetlight poles to tilt and traffic signals to fail. A municipal sanitation department (hereinafter referred to as 'the Department') received an urgent directive to complete repairs within seven days and procure at least two multi-functional service vehicles for rapid transportation of repair tools, lighting equipment, and emergency supplies. Their existing fleet was outdated and unable to meet the demands of intensive operations. The head of the Department’s Emergency Division recalled: 'At that time, if the vehicles had not arrived promptly, repair progress would have been severely delayed, potentially jeopardizing residents’ travel safety.' According to local procurement practices, such urgent acquisitions follow an 'Emergency Supplementary Procurement' process—streamlining tendering procedures and prioritizing suppliers with ample inventory and fast delivery capabilities. Emergency Tendering: Why the Ford Transit V362 Chassis? Upon receiving the requirement, the Department swiftly initiated internal approval, with a budget capped at approximately RMB 339,000 (based on publicly available tender information, inclusive of vehicle modification and registration fees). The tender document explicitly specified the following requirements: the vehicle must be equipped with a diesel engine meeting China VI emission standards; wheelbase must exceed 3,300 mm to accommodate custom tool racks; and the chassis brand must offer nationwide warranty and service coverage to facilitate future maintenance. After preliminary screening, the Ford Transit V362 chassis was selected as the top choice due to the following advantages: Powertrain: Equipped with a 2.0T diesel engine delivering a maximum output of 90 kW, ensuring reliable performance under complex road conditions. Interior Space & Layout: Overall dimensions approx. 5,341 × 2,032 × 2,407 mm, with interior height exceeding 1.5 meters—ideal for customizable multi-tier storage racks. After-sales Network: Over 800 authorized Ford service centers nationwide; chassis components covered by original-equipment manufacturer (OEM) warranty. Ultimately, the Department opted for an 'integrated chassis + body-upfit procurement' model, entrusting Chengli Special Purpose Vehicle Co., Ltd. (hereinafter 'Chengli') with full-vehicle modification. As an enterprise listed in the MIIT Announcement Catalog (e.g., model CLW5040XGCJ6), Chengli ensures nationwide vehicle registration and annual inspection compliance. Chengli’s Rapid Response: Delivery Achieved in Just 8 Days Upon order receipt, Chengli activated its emergency production protocol. According to internal knowledge base data, standard delivery lead time for Chengli’s conventional models is 7–15 days; however, given the urgency, Chengli coordinated closely with the chassis supplier (Jiangling Ford) to prioritize allocation of two V362 chassis units. The modification workshop adopted a 'three-shift rotation' system, focusing on the following customizations: Tool Rack System: Installation of aluminum alloy rail-mounted storage racks inside the cargo compartment, capable of securely holding heavy equipment—including cutting machines, generators, and cable reels—up to 200 kg; Power Supply System: Integration of a 120Ah auxiliary battery and inverter, enabling 220V power supply for emergency lighting and electric tools; Exterior Identification: Application of reflective warning strips and 'Emergency Service Vehicle' decals, fully compliant with road operation safety regulations. From contract signing to final delivery, the entire process took only eight days. The Department’s acceptance supervisor stated: 'When the vehicles arrived, the tool racks were already pre-configured per our specifications—our pre-prepared equipment could be loaded directly onto the vehicles, elimi
