About this file
This document contains a recommendation for a sole source justification. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA Shared Services Center is seeking to negotiate with a single vendor to provide air cool chillers from Filtrine meeting requirements of a minimum 70,000 BTU/HR cooling capacity, 50-gallon tank size, ability to fit into tight spaces, and using 460-volt 3 phase 60 cycle power of 30 amps or less. If an alternative chiller is used that does not meet the power and cooling requirements, it could damage facility systems and test articles. The total estimated cost of this effort is a redacted amount with an estimated 100 working day period of performance from receipt. The recommendation argues competition is impractical as market research did not identify any replacement chillers with the unique characteristics required to meet the technical and space constraints.

NASA SHARED SERVICES CENTER
RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE
OR BRAND NAME
PICK ONE
Sole Source:
I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with Vendor Name only for Enter Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Enter Dollar amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is Date.
OR
Brand Name Justification:
I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with only with vendors who can provide the subject band name from Filtrine for air cool chiller. The total estimated cost of this effort is amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 100 working days from receipt
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.
During my research I could not find a replacement chiller with a minimum 70,000 BTU/HR, 50-gallon tank, a to be moved and fit into tight spaces. Power requirements of 460-volt, 3 phase ,60 cycles, 30 amps or less is needed because this is the power available in the building.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
If the chillers requested, do not meet the power and cooling requirement the facility many need to rewire to support power and chiller may not cool equipment properly causing damage to systems and test articles. Also, the size requirement is needed to fit in the allow space.
