Residential Generators

The U.S. Department of State (DoS) Utility Management (UM) is a program organization under the auspices of the Facilities Management Division within the Department of State's Bureau of Overseas Building Operation Bureau (OBO). One such program function under UM provides generator and related accessory funding for residences occupied by full-time Foreign Service Officers stationed at a post, for the Marine Guard house and other agency residences assigned to a post location. This process is governed by organizational policies which designate the UM Program as the responsible Department of State (DOS) organization for sizing all generators and providing post with the necessary assistance and guidance for the procurement and installation of the generators.
