About this file

This is a NASA Shared Services Center Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source or Brand Name justification document dated September 14, 2026.

The document is a brand name justification recommendation for the acquisition of Haynes International proprietary alloys, specifically Haynes 233, Haynes 244, Haynes 282, and Haynes 230. The estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 3 months. The justification indicates that competition is impractical because these alloys are proprietary to Haynes International and protected within the patent timeframe. The technical rationale provided states that these materials are part of a comprehensive alloy comparison program that includes proprietary alloys from multiple manufacturers, and excluding Haynes would significantly diminish the program's scope. The document is signed by Karen Artis, Contracting Officer, and references FAR 5.101(a) as the regulatory basis for this single-source brand name acquisition for an open market purchase exceeding $25,000, which will be posted on SAM.gov. The requesting official is identified as a Materials Research Engineer.

RECOMMENDATION AND DETERMINATION TO SOLICIT FROM ONE SOURCE

OR BRAND NAME

PICK ONE

Sole Source:

☐I recommend that NASA, NASA Shared Services Center negotiate with Vendor Name only for Enter

Supply or Service to be procured. The total estimated cost of this effort is Enter Dollar amount and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is Date.

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 Haynes International for Haynes 233, Haynes 244, Haynes 282, Haynes 230. The total estimated cost of this effort is and the estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 3 months.

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.

Haynes® alloys are proprietary to Haynes International and within the patent timeframe.

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

These materials are part of a comparison of many alloys, including proprietary alloys from other companies. Not purchasing from Haynes would significantly decrease the scope of the program.
