I've found one solicitation for generators dated 8/20 for a generator.... From Commerce Business Daily, August 23, 1999 PSA-2415

STATOR, GENERATOR

Category : <61> (Electric Wire and Power and Distribution Equipment) Address : Defense Supply Center Richmond, 8000 Jefferson Davis Highway, Richmond, VA 23297-5000 Sol. no. : SP043099R3062 Contact : Sharon Blackmore/ZZ885/804-279-5373/Vanessa Ward/804-279-3492, Contracting Officer Solicitation for NSN 6115001162214,FPG99218000989, cage 99167, P/N 906D398-1. Due : 12 Oct, 1999 SOL SP043099R3062 DUE 101299 POC Sharon Blackmore/ZZ885/804-279-5373/Vanessa Ward/804-279-3492, Contracting Officer Solicitation for NSN 6115001162214,FPG99218000989, cage 99167, P/N 906D398-1. Manufacturer: Sundstrand Aerospace, P/N 906d398-1. Specifications, plans or drawings relating to the procrement described are not available and cannot be furnished by the Govt. Incremental QTY: Primary: 8, 1ST ALT: 14, 2ND ALT: 20, 3ND ALT: 26. Option to INC QTY is 100%. Delivery schedule is 150 DARO. Unrestricted. Automated best value model. Only one source (note 22). Intented source (s): Sundstrand Aerospace. EBB proposals are unacceptable. The final contact award decision may be based upon a combination of price, past performance and other evaluation factor. Posted 08/19/99 (W-SN370146). (0231) VA appears on the spreadsheet a few times (and this is if I'm reading this right: the generators appear HEADED for VA??). Note: there are fifty bazillion solicitations so fire up that T-1 if you intend to help with the research. Power supplies are category 61 - the sols categories are somewhere, I haven't found them yet. At any rate, within a day we should be able to determine if the navy data was considered accurate enough to start making serious Y2K preps, or was a half-hearted administrative effort. Thanks in advance for any research done, and suggestions, please, as to the best manner of compiling what data is discovered. Comments? Suggestions? Recommendations?

Wow:

"Power supplies are category 61 - the sols categories are somewhere, I haven't found them yet. At any rate, within a day we should be able to determine if the navy data was considered accurate enough to start making serious Y2K preps, or was a half-hearted administrative effort."

What do you think they are thinking here about the comment about the "Navy Data"?

Thomas, everything after string "(W-SN370146).(0231)" is my posting. As everyone knows, can't format my way out of a wet paper bag. Anyway, found a better way to search for 61-related procurements, and here's the search results: http://x48.deja.c om/[ST_rn=ps]/dnquery.xp?search=next&DBS=1&VW=news.issues.gov&IS=CBD% 3c61%3e&ST=QS&offsets=db99p6% 0275&svcclass=dnserver&CONTEXT=935161202.2028208197

Got this by searching only on CBD 61. Here's an 8/14 RFP for a generator for GA: From Commerce Business Daily, August 17, 1999 PSA-2411 GENERATOR, SYNCHRONOUS Category : <61> (Electric Wire and Power and Distribution Equipment) Address : FISC Jacksonville-Kings Bay Det, 930 USS HUNLEY Ave Rm 214, NAVSUBASE Kings Bay GA 31547 Sol. no. : N46450-Q-2E52 Contact : Contact ALICE M.

Mercy people, you ain't seen nothin'! You will have a ton of fun with this link: (Can someone please make a hot-link? Thanks)

http://cbdnet.gpo.gov/search1.html

Anyway, go here and ignore the limit of 200 records, (I usually put in 400 and get 350 or so)

Then put in the keyword GENERATOR after that try Y2K (the keyword STUDY can bring up some really wierd stuff) I had a great time the other day with the keywords ARMED GUARDS--(glad I don't live in Texas!) Have Fun! Charli
