About this file
This document is a brand name justification for a federal contract opportunity with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center. The justification recommends negotiating only with Axis Communications to acquire AXIS network cameras, including models Q6010-E, Q6075-E, T91L61, Q1700-LE, and Q3628-VE. It also recommends Axis T8154 and T8129 network devices, RDR RP40-H and RPK40-H card readers from HID Global, and a Lenel Command Keypad. Maintaining the Axis brand is necessary as their cameras meet federal security standards, align with the agency's existing video management system, and match the incumbent hardware, avoiding additional costs. Changing manufacturers would require testing integration with security systems, delaying certification on the government network, and necessitating new accessory purchases. The related solicitation is for Axis control and protective services hardware with number 80NSSC850571Q, to be awarded by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Shared Services Center.

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 product(s) AXIS network cameras are current brand name and hardware that meets our current IT security plan. Second, Axis Communications network cameras meets all Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) compliance and are currently 100% of our current deployed hardware on a Video Management System.
2. What is the impact to the government if another vendor/brand is used? Include any dollar, schedule, or compatibility impacts if possible.
Axis Communications network cameras meets all Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) compliance and are currently 100% of our current deployed hardware on a Video Management System.
The Protective Services Office prefers Axis cameras due to the longevity and reliability of the hardware.
The impact for changing the manufacture brand will increase the cost for the government from testing the hardware for system integration to our LENEL OnGuard Physical Access System. The time delays on IT testing and certification to add to the new hardware to the NASA government network. Finally, not keeping the AXIS hardware will require us to purchase new accessories, tools and mounting hardware for the new cameras.
