About this file
This is a Brand Name Justification form from NASA Shared Services Center for the purchase of a Dewesoft SIRIUS ACC+ data acquisition system from DEWESoft LLC. The document provides justification for limiting competition to vendors who can supply this specific brand name product.
The justification cites NASA's requirement for a high-speed data acquisition system that must be modular and capable of recording at rates up to 200 kS/s, with channels able to measure both IEPE accelerometers and general voltages up to ±10V, including associated digital output channels. The system must integrate with existing Dewesoft software environment. The agency states that using an alternative product could cause schedule delays for wind tunnel testing at 8x6/9x15 facility due to potential need for additional support hardware, and could create compatibility issues with NASA's current data systems framework. The delivery timeline is specified as 2 days ARO (After Receipt of Order).

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.
NASA requires a high-speed data acquisition system that is modular and capable of recording at rates of up to 200 kS/s. Each channel must be able to measure both IEPE accelerometers and general voltages up to ±10V, with an associated digital output channel for each. Additionally, the system must function seamlessly within the Dewesoft software environment.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
Purchasing an alternative product may result in schedule delays for wind tunnel testing at 8x6/9x15 due to the need for additional support hardware if the specified requirements are not fully met. The design, procurement, and testing of this additional hardware would create further schedule impacts. Furthermore, this product is integrated within the Dewesoft software framework, already utilized by NASA and supported by our internal data systems division. Opting for a different system could lead us to operate outside our supported framework, potentially introducing compatibility issues and risks to our testing objectives.
