About this file

This is a NASA Shared Services Center Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source or Brand Name document dated March 15, 2017 (Version 2.0).

The document recommends a brand name justification for the procurement of a Cosen C-510MNC Mitering Band Saw. The acquisition is justified based on exhaustive market research of comparable saws within the required size and type range. The specific brand and model were selected due to unique operational requirements: the saw must fit within existing floor space constraints, operate on the same power supply as the current equipment without requiring facility modifications, and provide specific capabilities including automatic cycle function, mitering capability, dual vise, and precision feed pressure. The estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is September 30, 2026. The justification document indicates that alternative vendors or brands would necessitate modifications to standard manufacturing processes and/or facility infrastructure, creating scheduling impacts and additional costs to the government. The technical user signed the recommendation on March 3, 2016.

RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE

OR BRAND NAME

PICK ONE

Sole Source:

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 Cosen for C-510MNC Mitering Band Saw. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 09/30/2026.

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.

This particular saw was selected after an exhaustive research campaign of all saws of this type and size range. We have limited floor space and power supply, this saw fits within our existing footprint and uses the same power supply as our current saw and will not require any facility modifications. This saw also has automatic cycle, mitering capability, dual vise, and precision feed pressure, along with many other desirable features.

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

This saw checks all the boxes we have for functionality, foot print, and power supply. Any other saw would require modification to our standard manufacturing processes and/or facility modifications.
