About this file

This is a Brand Name Justification form from NASA Shared Services Center recommending negotiation only with vendors who can provide Veridt & Lenel Hardware, with an estimated delivery timeline of 30 days ARO (After Receipt of Order).

The justification explains that the Electronic Security System (ESS) at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) must utilize Lenel products exclusively to integrate with the Agency Lenel Enterprise Physical Access Control System (EPACS), as mandated by FIPS 201-2 and NPR 1620.3A. NASA and LaRC management have identified LENEL as the only ESS products suitable for integration with the NASA ESS, which is mandated by NASA HQ OPS. The document emphasizes that using any other vendor's products would be incompatible with the existing agency system, as the security of NASA Critical Infrastructure (NCI) specifically requires these brand name products and their authorized suppliers, VARs, and installers.

IAW FIPS 201-2 and the NPR1620.3A, the Electronic Security System (ESS) at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) is tied into the Agency Lenel Enterprise Physical Access Control System (EPACS) and therefore must utilize only Lenel products in order to communicate and function appropriately on the agency system. The use of Lenel is agency mandated. NASA and LaRC management has identified LENEL as the only ESS products suitable for integration with the NASA ESS. The NASA ESS is mandated by NASA HQ OPS.

The design for the security of NASA Critical Infrastructure (NCI) requires brand name products in models which are particular to this manufacturer and their authorized suppliers and VAR(s) and installers.

2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.

In accordance with FIPS 201-2 and NPR 1620.3A, the Electronic Security System (ESS) at NASA Langley Research Center (LaRC) is interconnected with the Agency Lenel Enterprise Physical Access Control System (EPACS). As a result, it is essential to utilize only Lenel products to ensure proper communication and functionality within the agency's system, as mandated by the agency. NASA and LaRC management have determined that LENEL is the sole provider of ESS products compatible for integration with the NASA ESS. This
