Answer: Answered in Addendum 1 03/17/2026 04:23 PM EDT 03/26/2026 01:11 PM EDT - Q4 Arrow Right Question: Emergency Power Generator Replacement Generator brand restrictions create longer lead times and higher prices, which causes waste for public funds. We can deliver the 450kw generator in 8 weeks, an equal product arriving at least 6 months faster than the approved brand, meaning the equipment could be installed before next winter. Assuming we meet or exceed all specifications in their entirety, will GenServe be added as an approved generator supplier / manufacturer for this project? GenServe is a well-established national generator service and sales company since 1990 and employs over 400 people. I sent to you via email a sample submittal for our proposed substitute for your review. References for like projects available upon request.
