Justification for Brand Name Procurement
This document is a Justification for Brand Name used under simplified procedures for a purchase request (1301357913) that restricts competition to a single manufacturer in accordance with FAR 12.102(a). The procurement is for an Eaton Cutler-Hammer Magnum DS low voltage power circuit breaker (Model MDSC253WEA, CAT# MDSC253WEA25MTCNAA6Y HNNAX) required for immediate delivery following award. The product can be obtained through authorized resellers of the manufacturer. This circuit breaker is designated as a direct replacement component for existing equipment at Naval Computer and Telecommunications Station (NCTS) Sicily, where it powers the main operational equipment and provides essential support to a generator that supplies redundant power to the site. Without this specific breaker, the generator is inoperable.
The justification establishes that no substitutes are available and that exact one-to-one replacement is mandatory due to compatibility and form-fit-function requirements with the existing electrical system. The procuring activity certified that the information provided is complete and accurate and acknowledges that this brand name justification precludes the use of full and open competition. The document is designated as source selection information under FAR 2.101 and 3.104.
