As the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), and an ISO9001 certified supplier, Eaton Corporation (formerly: “Eaton Electrical Inc.” and “Powerware”) is the provider of factory-supported, factory trained, factory authorized and factory certified service for your critical UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) equipment.

Eaton offers power quality services for its UPS products, as well as for related equipment such as power distribution units (PDUs), batteries, alternative energy devices and Cutler-Hammer switchgear.

Eaton is the only authorized provider of service support with the Eaton developed proprietary service software for 3-phase Eaton UPS products. Eaton does not train, certify or support independent third party service providers to deliver or service Eaton UPS and power quality products.

Due to its lack of training on competitor’s platforms Eaton does not service non-Eaton branded power quality equipment. Eaton only works on its own branded equipment or devices it’s been certified to fully support and maintain (e.g., flywheels, static transfer switches).

No other service supplier is authorized to possess Eaton proprietary (copyrighted) software, repair documentation, processes or materials.

The Period of Performance is for 1 year / 12 months of service. Flex Plan with Two UPS and Two Battery Preventive Maintenance Checks for all 8 systems.

The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code for this service is 238210 (Electrical Contractors and Other Wiring Installation Contractors). The Product Service Code (PSC) is J061 (Maint/Repair/Rebuild of Equipment- Electric Wire and Power Distribution Equipment). Small business size standard is $19 Million.

Please reference the announcement number (36C24527Q0046) in the subject line of the e-mail. Such documentation will be reviewed solely for the purpose of determining whether or not to conduct the procurement on a competitive basis.
