About this file

This is a Contracting Officer's Determination Memorandum for a brand name purchase under the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT). The contracting officer has determined that only specific brand name items can meet the Government's requirements for production of Force Provider MWR add-on modules due to standardized pack plan configurations. The Government requires specific dimensions and spacing within containers that match items already in storage and deployed in the field; substituting alternative brands with different packing dimensions would necessitate reconfiguring units at LEAD manufacturing facilities and revising Technical Data Pack (TDP) drawings, resulting in unplanned costs for document editing and research.

The one-time purchase includes multiple branded sports and fitness equipment items with specified part numbers and quantities, including MacGregor leg guards (qty 4), baseball gloves (qty 50 total across two styles), Rawlings chest protectors (qty 4), Hasbro Nerf footballs (qty 16), Easton and other softball bats (qty 24 total), Stiga table tennis table (qty 4), Champion sit-up boards (qty 4), Bison outdoor basketball equipment (qty 8), Bowflex fitness equipment including mat, weight plates, and accessory racks (qty 38 total), dumbbells in various styles (qty 24 total), Anchor Audio and Sharp sound systems with accessories (qty 8 total), and a Panasonic projector (qty 2). The determination is based on market research demonstrating that alternative brand names cannot meet or be modified to meet the Government's specific requirements without incurring substantial additional costs and logistical complications.

Contracting Officer's Determination Memorandum for Sole Source (Including Brand Name) less than SAT

In accordance with FAR 13.106-l(b)(l), for purchases not exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT), Contracting Officer's may solicit from one source if they determine that the circumstances of the contract action deem only one source reasonably available ( e.g. urgency, exdusive licensing agreements, brand name, or industrial mobilization). The determination must explain why the item or service provider is the only one that will meet the

Government's requirement. Statements such as "only known source" or "only source which can meet the required delivery date" are unacceptable to support a sole source purchase.

PCF Cabinet number Estimated Dollar Value

Brief description of supplies or services required and the intended use:

Brand name items that are required per customer drawings. These items will be used for the Production of -Force Provider MWR add on modules.

Check the type of purchase. This is a 8 Brand Name Purchase 0Sole Source Purchase Provide the unique characteristics that limit availability to only one source, including the reason(s) no other supplies or services can be used to meet the Government's needs. If you are stating the purchase is mandated by law, regulation, or policy, state the publication, date, and include a copy of the publication with the package. If the request is based on unusual or compelling urgency, describe the circumstances leading to the urgency, including when the requirement became known. (Urgency cannot be justified due to expiring funds or a lack of planning by the customer.)

Market research demonstrates that other brand names cannot meet, or cannot be modified to meet, the Government's requirements because- has very a specific pack plan configuration. Every space within the containers has the space utilized to a standardized pack plan that requires each specific brand name item listed below. Using other products that have different packing dimensions would result in a re-configuration of the units being produced at LEAD by other manufactures which would not match items already in storage and deployed in the field. Such a re-configuration would result in changing the Technical Data Pack (TOP) drawings.

These changes would cost the government unplanned expenditures in editing these documents as well as the time and effort with related costs for the government to research a new pack configuration.
