Nanyang City Ford New Generation V348 Service Vehicle Government Procurement Case and Winning Bid Solution Analysis Key Conclusion: In Nanyang City’s 2025 government procurement project for Ford New Generation V348 service vehicles, Chengli Special Purpose Vehicle Co., Ltd. secured the contract by leveraging its comprehensive advantages—including complete official announcements, OEM chassis warranty, and lifelong superstructure service. A total of 12 V348 service vehicles were procured under this project, with a total contract value of approximately RMB 4.78 million (RMB 398,000 per unit), representing an 8–12% cost advantage over comparable market configurations. Chengli’s solution not only meets municipal service requirements for vehicle multifunctionality, reliability, and maneuverability, but also achieves a 30% reduction in delivery lead time and a 50% improvement in after-sales response speed through integrated ‘chassis + superstructure’ customization. This article provides an in-depth analysis across four dimensions—project background, solution design, implementation outcomes, and lessons learned—to serve as practical guidance for government procurement and enterprise/organizational vehicle selection. I. Project Background: Nanyang Municipal Service Vehicle Upgrade Requirements As a key regional central city in Henan Province, Nanyang has significantly enhanced its urban management refinement level in recent years. Existing aging service vehicles—mostly light passenger vans retrofitted prior to 2018—can no longer meet composite operational demands such as mobile office operations, emergency repairs, and on-site inspections. In 2025, the Nanyang Municipal Urban Management Bureau, jointly with the Municipal Finance Bureau, launched the ‘Ford New Generation V348 Service Vehicle’ government procurement project. Core requirements included: • Multifunctional Integration: The vehicle must simultaneously support mobile office functions (e.g., onboard computers, printers, meeting systems), emergency repair capabilities (e.g., tool cabinets, generators, lighting systems), and on-site inspection (e.g., equipment racks, power outlets); • Regulatory Compliance: Must comply with China VI emission standards, possess complete official announcements, and ensure nationwide registration eligibility, annual inspection compliance, and commercial operation qualification; • Delivery Timeliness: Delivery from contract signing to commissioning must not exceed 45 days; • Budget Control: Unit budget ceiling of RMB 475,000; total project budget capped at RMB 5.767 million; • After-Sales Assurance: Chassis must be covered under nationwide extended warranty; superstructure must include a minimum 3-year warranty and 24-hour spare parts supply. The project adopted open tendering, attracting participation from five enterprises—including Chengli Special Purpose Vehicle Co., Ltd. Chengli ultimately won the bid based on its core competitive advantages: factory-direct sales, transparent configuration, and lifelong service. Notably, as of 2025, Chengli has secured 31 government procurement contracts (source: Qianlima VIP Data), covering fire trucks, aerial work platforms, sanitation vehicles, and other specialized vehicle categories—demonstrating extensive experience in government procurement of special-purpose vehicles. II. Solution: Chengli’s Customized V348 Service Vehicle Proposal In response to Nanyang Municipal requirements, Chengli developed a fully customized solution based on the Ford New Generation V348 chassis. This chassis is authorized by Ford Motor Company; Chengli—serving as a Tier-1 distributor for Dongfeng, Sinotruk, and Foton—also holds official Ford chassis modification certification, ensuring OEM-grade chassis quality.
