About this file
This document contains a recommendation and determination to solicit from one source or brand name for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. The recommendation is to negotiate solely with PolyScience for the acquisition of chillers for an Electrified Aircraft Testbed. The total estimated cost of this effort is redacted and the estimated period of performance for delivery is 16 weeks.
The reasons provided for soliciting only from PolyScience include that after reviewing the marketplace, these chillers best meet the requirements and NASA has experience with these chillers in similar test setups, finding them to be high quality and compatible with specifications. Going with an unknown vendor or unit would increase risk and delay schedules as NASA has extensive experience with this brand and they have proven performance sufficient for NASA's testing needs.

RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE
OR BRAND NAME
PICK ONE
Sole Source:
☐I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with Vendor Name only for Enter Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Enter Dollar amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is Date.
OR
Brand Name Justification:

The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 16 weeks ARO.
This recommendation is for the acquisition of supplies or services determined to be reasonably available from only one source/only one manufacture. Competition is impractical for the following reasons (please answer the questions below):
1. What are the reasons for soliciting only the suggested source/suggested brand name? Please provide the unique characteristics of the items or services along with the supporting rationale and the market research performed to substantiate your reason for the suggested source/brand name.
After reviewing the marketplace for comparable units, these PolyScience chillers are the best performing units meeting our requirements. Also, NASA has experience with these chillers in other very similar experimental test setups and they have proven to be high quality units which are compatible with the specifications.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
Increased risk and delayed schedules. Our team has much experience with this brand of chillers, and they have a proven track record of working well. Going with an unknown vendor / unit would put our team at risk of receiving a chiller of insufficient performance to provide the functionality NASA need for our testing.
