About this file
This document is a Brand Name Justification for the purchase of miscellaneous Trimble field survey equipment under simplified acquisition procedures (under $250,000). The Federal Highway Administration's Eastern Federal Lands Highway Division currently uses Trimble products exclusively for their survey data collection, processing, and mapping, and wishes to continue using Trimble equipment due to compatibility with their existing hardware and software. The government has determined that it is in their best interest to continue using Trimble products to avoid significant negative impacts from transitioning to a new brand, including software reinstallation and downtime. A related federal contract opportunity, Solicitation Number 693C7324Q000024, is seeking quotes from certified Trimble resellers for the procurement of the required Trimble equipment and accessories. The solicitation is open to all responsible sources, with a 10-day response period.

$250,000)

Federal Highway Administration Quantum Park, 22001 Loudoun County Parkway Building E2, Suite 200 Ashburn, VA 20147
Describe supplies and/or services being procured:
Miscellaneous �ield survey equipment used by Eastern Federal Lands survey �ield crews for collecting, processing, and mapping the civil engineering data. We currently use all Trimble products for our survey deliverables. We have been using Trimble products for over a decade with minimum downtimes.

Authorized Trimble equipment resellers
Rationale supporting speci�ic brand name acquisition under the simpli�ied acquisition threshold (Authority under FAR 11.105(a)(1) and FAR 13.501(a)(1))
The division utilizes Trimble survey equipment and software for �ield data collection, processing, and mapping compilation. By purchasing Trimble products there will be no issue with compatibility of our existing equipment (Total station & GNSS) and software (TBC & RealWork) that the division uses. Based on market research and past performance of the current use of the Trimble equipment, it is in the Government’s best interest to continue the use of Trimble equipment. To change product and or brand will have a signi�icant negative impact from data collection to delivery. The in-of�ice software will involve reinstalling several new softwares, which will need IT approval and hours of downtime.
