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 Shared Services Center. The recommendation is for the acquisition of FM209-1U adhesive from Solvay as the only source, as NASA has collected significant material properties data on the performance of this adhesive through a specific manufacturing process. Selecting an alternative material system would require additional years of work and could cause NASA to miss milestones for high-value test campaigns. The total estimated cost of this sole source effort is redacted and the estimated period of performance is 22-24 weeks from the date of purchase.

NATIONAL AERONAUTICS AND SPACE ADMINISTRATION
NASA SHARED SERVICES CENTER
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 Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Dollar Amount and the estimated period of performance is Date.
OR
Brand Name Justification:
☒I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with only with vendors who can provide the subject band name from Solvay for FM209-1U adhesive. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 22-24 weeks from date of purchase.
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.
NASA has collected significant material properties on the performance of FM209-1U with a NASA-developed manufacturing process. Collecting this amount of data with another material system is impractical from a schedule and budget perspective.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
NASA would miss milestones associated with high-value test campaigns. Selecting another material system would require years of extra work.
