Naval Facilities Engineering and Expeditionary Warfare Center (NAVFAC EXWC) Executive Officer Capt. Paul Chan speaks at a ribbon cutting celebrating the delivery of ten, 900KW generators for the Mobile Utilities Support Equipment (MUSE) team, highlighting a process that resulted in greater efficiencies in obtaining critical resources for the Fleet and warfighter. Chan noted how MUSE worked directly with the manufacturer, streamlining every facet of the project and enabling rapid deployment of essential power assets and saving a considerable amount of time and money compared to other contractual relationships. In utilizing this process, he said, EXWC strengthened its ability to sustain critical mission infrastructure while ensuring cost-effective resource allocation. Chan said the generators, designed and manufactured by Girtz Industries, are compliant to meet mission needs, while noting they arrived five months ahead of schedule. The first fixed-price contract for the generators was awarded to Girtz in August 2023. MUSE provides specialized, transportable equipment and expert Seabee technicians to support utility and critical power systems at DoD locations worldwide. (U.S. Navy photo by Lisa Ferdinando)
