Brand Name DF Below SAT Part 12.pdf

This is a Determination & Findings document justifying a sole source acquisition for a Body-Fat Assessment Machine.

The contracting activity is 501 CSW/RCO, and the requirement is for one InBody 770 Body-Fat Assessment Machine (Qty 1). The justification for sole source procurement is based on RFO 11.204(a)(2)(ii) (Brand Name), which establishes that the particular brand name, product, or feature is essential to the Government's requirements. Specifically, DAFMAN 36-2905 identifies and requires the InBody 770 model, and market research indicates that other companies' similar products or products lacking this particular feature do not meet the agency's needs or cannot be modified to meet minimum requirements. The determination concludes that only one source is reasonably capable of providing this equipment, thereby justifying the proposed sole source or brand name action under the applicable regulation. The Contracting Officer Lawrence E. Roman, USAF, signed the determination on August 19, 2026.
