5. Rationale Justifying Use of Cited Statutory Authority.

Only consumable supplies manufactured by Beckman Coulter and distributed by their authorized distributors can meet the minimum requirements of the Government. No other consumables from other manufacturers are compatible with the Beckman Coulter equipment that is currently installed. Only Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts and supplies can be used with the analyzers to maintain system warranty and serviceability. Using consumable supplies manufactured by the OEM ensures proper functioning of the equipment. The supplies requested are specific to the Government approved equipment that meets DOD laboratory requirements. It is paramount to the mission of the command that the screening analyzers function properly, and as intended by the manufacturer, due to the unique mission of the Drug Screening Laboratories. Only Beckman Coulter Inc. or an authorized distributor can meet the minimum requirements of the Government.

Market Research indicates that Beckman Coulter has multiple distributors capable of filling this requirement. Market research was conducted in August 2025. Research included requesting Beckman Coulter authorized consumable distributors, and a search of the Internet using Google and GSA Advantage.
