______ d. Industrial mobilization; engineering, developmental, or research capability; or expert services. In section 7, justify one of the following:

i. Why a contract must be awarded to maintain a facility, producer, manufacturer, supplier, or service provider in case of a national emergency;

CPSC requires additional data developed under previous contract 61320618D0004 which was awarded to the University of Michigan. The data was collected by University of Michigan. No other source has access to provide the data and analysis CPSC requires. Only University of Michigan has access to the data they collected in their study and is able to provide details on the methods they developed and used. The analysis CPSC requires will rely on this prior performance. No other vendor can provide the required services.
