Benard Kitur

Benard Kitur serves as a key procurement lead within the W6QM Micc-ft Stewart under the Department of the Army, overseeing the acquisition of mission-enabling commercial and industrial equipment leasing services critical to sustaining Army installations and training infrastructure. Responsible for managing contract vehicles that support facility operations, Kitur ensures timely delivery of specialized machinery and equipment essential for maintenance, construction support, and civil infrastructure projects. His portfolio focuses on non-expendable, high-utilization assets such as generators, aerial lifts, heavy earthmoving equipment, and modular power systems—procured through lease and rental arrangements that enhance operational flexibility and reduce long-term capital outlays. Kitur maintains a primary working relationship with X CELL MANAGEMENT INC, a trusted vendor that consistently delivers compliant, ready-to-deploy equipment solutions aligned with Army readiness standards. His contracting approach emphasizes reliability, rapid mobilization, and lifecycle support, fostering a stable, performance-based partnership with this contractor. While X CELL MANAGEMENT INC is the dominant awardee, Kitur’s process supports competitive engagement within the small business ecosystem, ensuring consistent vendor participation and service quality across contract periods. Kitur’s procurement strategy is fully aligned with small business objectives, with 100% of his acquisitions structured as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5. This reflects a deliberate and sustained commitment to empowering small businesses as primary providers of mission-critical equipment leasing services. No other socioeconomic categories are utilized, underscoring a focused dedication to broad small business inclusion without segmentation by size or status. His technical domain centers exclusively on NAICS 532490—Other Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Rental and Leasing—where he specializes in procuring heavy-duty, non-tactical equipment for installation sustainment. This includes leasing of construction machinery, HVAC systems, temporary power units, and specialized tools required for facility modernization, roofing, plumbing, and civil works projects across Army posts. His expertise lies in aligning equipment specifications with operational demands while ensuring regulatory compliance and logistical readiness.
