Brand Name Justification_Redacted.pdf

This is a Brand Name Justification form for a federal contract issued by AFSC/LOH/PZIOA at Hill AFB, UT for the Utah Test and Training Range (UTTR). The document seeks to acquire an Anritsu Spectrum Master (MS2720T) for critical radio frequency (RF) communications interference detection and location purposes.

The justification highlights the unique requirements of the equipment, including the need for a highly portable, self-contained test solution with specific capabilities for signal tracking, intermittent signal detection, and compatibility with the base's Precision Measuring Equipment Laboratory calibration standards. Other manufacturers were researched, but none could meet the UTTR's essential operational and technical requirements. The UTTR conducts market research to ensure an open market approach and has determined that a brand name justification is necessary to procure this specialized equipment for their test missions.
