    The National Guard Bureau is initiating a Generator Maintenance Service Contract for Building 912, which involves a sole source procurement from Cummins Sales and Service, the exclusive authorized distributor for Cummins engines in New York State. This contract, resulting from the authority cited in 41 USC 1901 and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), stipulates that the contractor will provide complete service and inspection of a 500 KW Cummins generator, including oil analysis and coolant system testing. Historically, a similar service was contracted previously under number W50S8H-20-P-0005 in July 2020, also sourcing from Cummins due to their proprietary maintenance capabilities. The justification for limiting competition arises from Cummins’ unique product support that no competitor can match. The contracting activity, led by MSgt Brian Schurr, aims for a fair and reasonable cost dedicated to operational and maintenance funding. The review process confirms that this justification adequately supports other than full and open competition, ensuring compliance and efficiency in generator maintenance services essential for operational readiness.
