About this file

This is a Sole Source Justification document from the NASA Shared Services Center recommending single-source procurement from Precision Filters, Inc. for data acquisition components. The procurement supports the replacement of an outdated Neff 8400 Data Acquisition System (DAS) at the 31" M10 tunnel with a Remote Acquisition Data System (RADS). The requested components will expand the system from 96 channels to 128 channels and include additional fans to maintain the existing Mach 10 DAS infrastructure. The estimated delivery date is June 30, 2026, with a cost amount redacted in the document.

The justification asserts that Precision Filters, Inc. is the sole manufacturer of the required components, making competition impractical. The document emphasizes that procuring from alternative vendors would create major compatibility and operational impacts to the Government and the RADS system, as no other manufacturer produces these specific components. By sourcing from Precision Filters, NASA ensures new quality components, factory support, and warranties. The technical authorization is dated April 27, 2026, with the authorizing official's name and title redacted from the document.

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.

The Neff 8400 Data Acquisition System (DAS) at the 31” M10 tunnel is being replaced by a Remote Acquisition Data System (RADS). This project aims to upgrade the existing data acquisition system that is outdated and no longer supported. The items being requested for purchase will expand our system from 96 channels to 128 channels and add a few fans to maintain our existing Mach 10 DAS infrastructure. The components are manufactured and sold directly from Precision Filters, Inc. By using Precision Filters, we are ensured new quality components, factory support, and warranties.

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

The impact to the Government and to the RADS system at the 31” M10 tunnel will be major if Precision Filters, Inc. components are not purchased. There is no other manufacturer of these components. For this reason, it is requested that the above-mentioned PR be sole sourced to Precision Filters, Inc.
