About this file
This document contains a brand name justification recommendation for a federal solicitation. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center recommends negotiating solely with vendors who can provide PLC cabinets from Hoffman, as the specific model numbers and manufacturers have been identified in NASA's design as government furnished equipment for a construction project. Using another brand would require a contract redesign and impact the schedule and budget. Local representation is required for warranty and troubleshooting support. The related solicitation seeks offers for high pressure industrial water facility controls upgrades using Hoffman PLC cabinets. The opportunity was issued by NASA Shared Services Center. The estimated cost is [dollar amount] and the period of performance is 60 days.

RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE
OR BRAND NAME
PICK ONE
Brand Name Justification:
☒I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with only with vendors who can provide the subject band name from Hoffman nvent for PLC Cabinets. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 60 DAYS ARO.
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 (please answer the questions below):
1. What are the reasons for soliciting only the suggested source/suggested brand name? Please provide the unique characteristics of the items or services along with the supporting rationale and the market research performed to substantiate your reason for the suggested source/brand name.
Specific model numbers/manufactures for hardware PLC cabinets have been identified in a NASA design to be supplied as GFE for a construction project. Our requirements include specific name brand/model numbers and suppliers within their specific local/regional/territorial sales/representation areas for Stennis Space Center. This is to ensure local representation and warranty of the hardware procured.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand was used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
If another brand is used, the government will be required to initiate a contract change for redesign. If a supplier of the hardware is not our specific sales regions, local supplier/manufacture representatives will not support the hardware warranties or troubleshooting. Representation for warranties and troubleshooting outside of the local supplier’s sales areas will cause confusion and additional wasted funds in the future. Additionally, any other brand name may not meet the specific requirements and may require additional funding to cover the changes.
