The FEMA Disaster Emergency Communications Division is issuing a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the acquisition of 13 mobile command vehicle generators (8kw) and 2 larger generators (12kw). This initiative aims to replace outdated 20-year-old generators, which have surpassed their operational life and are deemed unreliable in emergency situations. The new generators, specifically from the Cummins brand or equivalent models, are essential for maintaining power during FEMA's operations and must fit within restricted vehicle compartments. The document outlines delivery requirements, specifying locations and timelines for each generator within 120 days of contract award. Additionally, vendors are required to provide warranty information upon delivery. The focus of this RFP highlights FEMA's commitment to enhancing its emergency communication capabilities to support federal, state, tribal, and local partners effectively. This installation will bolster FEMA's ability to respond promptly to disaster in-field operations, ensuring reliable communication in critical situations.
