About this file

This document is a Sole Source (Including Brand Name) Justification for a federal contract issued by the 354th Contracting Squadron at Eielson Air Force Base, Alaska. The procurement is for a FieldFox N9913C Handheld RF Analyzer, specifically requesting 1x FieldFox N9913C with multiple options, including 3 additional options to be loaded to an existing N9913A to bring it into compliance with new requirements for the "RMC NEXT" concept. The acquisition is justified as a brand name procurement under FAR 6.302-1, citing unique software integration, proprietary hardware features, and specific calibration requirements that alternative solutions cannot meet. The requirement will be solicited on SAM.gov as a 100% small business set-aside to provide opportunity for interested vendors, with the contracting office considering anticipated costs fair and reasonable based on competitive offers of the brand name product.
