Attachment 2 - Brand Name Justification.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) document for a Well Inspection Camera "R-CAM TLE Level Wind" for the 356th ECEG/CONS at the Department of the Air Force. The requirement is for a portable borehole camera capable of operating in challenging remote environments, with key features including a motorized winch capable of reaching 1300 ft depth, digital viewing screen with real-time data transmission, automatic spooling, integrated depth measurement sensors, and pressure-rated cable head up to 5,000 PSI.

The justification establishes this as a brand name or equal requirement under the 513 ERHS requirement, with the stipulation that alternative items must meet or exceed the specified characteristics. The document cites compliance with AFMAN 32-1067 regulations for environmental and consumer safety in drinking water systems as justification. Market research indicated at least two vendors in the region could provide the equipment, though Laval Underground Surveys equipment is currently specified. The contracting officer determined on January 22, 2025 that only a single source is reasonably available per FAR 13.106-1(b)(1). The document confirms this is not a Bridge Action, and includes provisions for periodic review of this single-source decision.
