About this file

This document is a Single Source Justification form for a sole-source contract to repair a 2014 Volvo 500KW Mobile Diesel Generator for the Naval Nuclear Power Training Unit in Charleston. The 628th Contracting Squadron intends to award the contract to Nixon Power Services, the only authorized service provider for Volvo generators in the region, after conducting market research and confirming no other qualified service providers exist. The requirement owner will continue to survey the market for potential alternative sources and plans to pursue a competitive acquisition if additional authorized service providers are identified or if a generator replacement becomes necessary.

The solicitation (FA441825Q0021) is a pre-solicitation notice issued by the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command, with responses accepted until 5:00 PM Eastern Time on 7 April 2025. Interested parties may submit capability statements or proposals, though the government retains discretion to proceed with the single-source award. The contract specialist A1C Karel Allen and Contracting Officer Matthew Michel are the primary points of contact for this opportunity.
