Kenneth Jackson

Kenneth Jackson serves as Fleet Manager for the Procurement Office of Cecil County, Maryland, where he oversees the strategic acquisition and lifecycle management of municipal fleet assets and associated technical services. In this primary contracting role, he ensures the reliability and efficiency of county-operated vehicles and equipment by aligning procurement decisions with the agency’s mission to sustain critical public infrastructure. His acquisitions focus on maintenance, repair, and modernization of commercial and industrial machinery, as well as integrated systems that support fleet operations, including telematics, diagnostic tools, and fleet management software. Kenneth collaborates with a diverse range of vendors specializing in commercial vehicle maintenance, fleet optimization technologies, and industrial equipment servicing. While no single contractor dominates his portfolio, he consistently engages with certified technical service providers capable of delivering preventive maintenance, component refurbishment, and compliance-driven fleet upgrades. His procurement approach emphasizes performance-based contracting and long-term service agreements that prioritize uptime, safety, and regulatory adherence. Kenneth’s contracting patterns reflect a strong preference for open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions designated as non-set-aside. He does not routinely utilize socioeconomic set-asides such as 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs, instead prioritizing technical capability, service responsiveness, and lifecycle cost efficiency in vendor selection. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 541512 (Computer Systems Design Services) and 811310 (Commercial and Industrial Machinery and Equipment Repair and Maintenance). He regularly procures fleet management software platforms, diagnostic systems, predictive maintenance tools, and specialized repair services for heavy-duty vehicles and non-automotive municipal equipment. His expertise spans the integration of digital fleet analytics with physical asset maintenance, ensuring operational resilience across Cecil County’s public works infrastructure.
