About this file
This document is a Memorandum to the File justifying a sole source procurement for an Audio Analyzer (R&S CMA-180 Radio Test Set) by the Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity. The procurement is for a single R&S CMA-180 Radio Test Set from Rohde & Schwarz, with a total estimated price that is redacted, and a required delivery no later than 30 September 2025. The justification is based on exclusive licensing agreements, as the product is only available directly from the manufacturer with no authorized resellers.
The procurement process included a Request for Information (RFI) M68909-25-I-7711 issued on 9 April 2025, posted on NASA SEWP and SAM.GOV, which resulted in only one response from Rohde & Schwarz. The document includes technical certification by Martin Moore, Requirements Owner, and contracting approval by Quintin J. Pollard, Contracting Officer, with digital signatures dated 11 June 2025. The Audio Analyzer is intended to assess the accuracy of radio test outputs for radio systems operating in the 100 kHz to 3 GHz range, utilizing digital signal processing and advanced computing technologies.

1. ___ RESTRICTIVE RIGHTS. The source has established proprietary rights, limited rights in data, patent rights, copyrights or secret processes in the item or service required.
2. _X__ EXCLUSIVE LICENSING AGREEMENTS. The item or service is only available from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), or there is only one authorized distributor or technical representative for the OEM.
These products are only available from the sole manufacturer Rohde & Schwarz, with no authorized resellers for these products. This information was confirmed via email communication with Judy Pourazima, Account Manager, Test and Measurement, Rohde & Schwarz on 23 April 2025.
The Marine Corps Tactical Systems Support Activity issued a Request for Information (RFI) M68909-25-I-7711 on 9 April 2025 and posted it to the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (NASA SEWP) tool and to Systems for Award Management tool (SAM.GOV) with a closing date of 23 April 2025.
Both postings resulted in only one response received on 23 April 2025 through SAM.GOV from Rohde and Schwarz for providing products that meet MCTSSAs requirements resulting in the decision to seek a sole source procurement.
3. ___ OTHER REASONS.
B. ___ BRAND NAME. Item required must be a brand name product, or feature of a product, particular to one manufacturer.

Urgent requirements are supplies or services that will result in a work stoppage, or are mission critical and the routine processing time would result in injury to the Government. The determination that the procurement for the above item/service is an urgent and compelling requirement is based on the following:
