About this file

This memorandum documents a sole source justification for the procurement of thirteen trumpets for the New York Army National Guard Band. The trumpets require replacement after approximately ten years of use, which meets the established life cycle per various Army regulations and guidance.

The trumpets will be high-end professional models with specific features such as hand-hammered bells, Monel piston valves, extended low F third valve slides, and deluxe engraving. Only certain brands meet the Army's requirements for uniformity of style and sound quality within the band. The contracting officer recommends procuring the trumpets from multiple authorized vendors who are able to supply the specified make and model.
