Brand Name Justification Western Area Power Administration

FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), Simplified Acquisitions

PR #17WA121945

1. Identification of the agency and the contracting office.

Western Area Power Administration (Western) Desert Southwest Region (DSW), G1500 Procurement Office 615 S. 43rd Avenue Phoenix, AZ 85009

2. Description of supply or service required to meet the agency’s needs.

This is a brand name procurement for six complete OMICRON CMC-356 test sets with supporting software and accessories needed for protection relay testing.

3. The rationale or circumstances for limiting competition.

OMICRON is the only manufacturer that can provide the test sets and control panels for existing test sets currently utilized by G5300. WAPA technicians are not trained on the operation of other relay test sets and other brands will not be compatible with current test procedures. Acquisition of OMICRON name brand equipment is essential to the ability of WAPA relay craftsmen to perform their job duties in the most efficient and effective manner.
