About this file

This is a Contracting Officer's Determination Memorandum for a brand name purchase under the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT). The government is procuring specific brand name items required per customer drawings for the production of Force Provider MWR (Morale, Welfare, and Recreation) add-on modules. Market research demonstrates that alternative products cannot meet the Government's requirements due to a highly specific pack plan configuration where every space within containers is standardized and utilizes specific brand name items. Substituting products with different packing dimensions would necessitate reconfiguration of units produced at LEAD facilities, creating inconsistencies with items already in storage and deployed in the field, and would require costly revisions to Technical Data Pack (TDP) drawings.

The one-time purchase includes 29 distinct brand name items across sports equipment, fitness equipment, and audio-visual equipment. Required items include MacGregor leg guards (4 units), various branded baseball and softball gloves and bats (multiple Easton and other brand units), Rawlings chest protectors (4 units), Hasbro Nerf footballs (16 units), Stiga table tennis equipment (4 units), Bison basketball equipment (4 units each of padding and goals), Bowflex fitness equipment (multiple units including mats, weights, and a home gym), Anchor Audio and Sharp sound systems with accessories, and a Panasonic projector (2 units). The determination establishes that sole source procurement is justified based on the standardized pack plan configuration requirements and the cost and effort implications of researching alternative configurations.

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.
