This document is a Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source form from NASA Shared Services Center, recommending sole-source procurement from R.E. Mason for a Hardware Support Service Agreement. The contract covers a one-year period from 11/01/2025 to 10/31/2026, focusing on support for Emerson products including DeltaV, Machinery Health Manager, Meridium, Valvelink, and other infrastructure systems at NASA Langley.

The justification emphasizes NASA's existing investment in Emerson products and the critical nature of R.E. Mason's support for ongoing operations. Specifically, the document highlights that changing vendors would not be compatible with current support infrastructure and could cause downtime in existing projects. R.E. Mason is noted as the only certified Emerson business partner authorized to sell maintenance agreements in the Commonwealth of Virginia, which further supports the sole-source selection rationale.
