NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION

NASA SHARED SERVICES CENTER

Brand Name Justification:

☒I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with only with vendors who can provide the subject band name from Bell Helicopter Textron Inc. for one (1) Bell Main Rotor (M/R) Blade Assembly (Assy), part number 212-015-501-119 or 212-015-501-115.

This recommendation is for the acquisition of supplies or services determined to be reasonably available from only one source/only one manufacture. Competition is impractical for the following reasons

Aircraft parts are required to be purchased through approved vendors and are identified by part numbers.

This allows the item to be tracked through the life time and ensure maintenance performed on the serial numbered item is properly documented and tracked. Additionally, only items with corresponding part numbers can replace like parts. Bell manufactures this part to a critical design specification and we must ensure replacement parts meet that high design standard therefore, we must replace with Bell parts.

It is not acceptable to do so. We must use this part numbered item to replace current rotor blades.
