The Department of Defense, specifically the Army National Guard, is procuring Snow Broom Parts essential for maintaining runway and taxiway operations at Barnes Air National Guard Base in Massachusetts. The procurement is a sole source contract awarded to M-B Companies, Inc. for their proprietary model 4618 FMD sweeping trucks, as they are the only vendor capable of supplying the required parts compatible with this specific equipment. This acquisition is justified under FAR regulations due to the necessity of using a single responsible source, ensuring the operational readiness of critical maintenance equipment.
