About this award

Air Combat Command has awarded a definitive contract to Silver Lake Kenmar JV LLC (UEI: GX1PXCCM7PL8) for the lease of mobile generator equipment and associated maintenance services supporting E-4B Aircraft operations at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. The contract was awarded on January 1, 2024, as an 8(a) sole source set-aside with a ceiling value of $9.75M and is structured as a firm fixed-price engagement. The contract will remain in effect through December 31, 2029, providing uninterrupted power generation and maintenance support for this critical airborne command post platform.

The E-4B Nightwatch aircraft serves as the airborne command center for the Secretary of Defense and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during national emergencies and provides airborne launch control of intercontinental ballistic missiles. By leasing rather than procuring generator equipment outright, Air Combat Command maintains operational flexibility while ensuring reliable electrical power infrastructure at Barksdale AFB. The 8(a) sole source designation indicates this award leverages the Small Business Administration's 8(a) Business Development program, which supports small disadvantaged businesses in competing for federal contracts.
