BIA law enforcement and training programs have consistently relied on Hornady ammunition, ensuring uniform ballistic performance, safety, and qualification standards. This established, continuous use supports standardized training outcomes, and no other brand meets the required familiarity, reliability, or performance consistency needed for academy training.

The Brand Name Justification will be included with the Combined Synopsis/Solicitation published on SAM.gov, ensuring public notice. Market research confirms that ISBEEs are capable of supplying Hornady ammunition; therefore, the requirement will be solicited as an ISBEE set-aside.

I hereby determine that the anticipated cost to the Government for this contract action will be fair and reasonable. This determination is based on the following:
