About this file
This document is a Justification and Approval for Other than Full and Open Competition - Brand Name or Equal form for the 411th Contracting Support Brigade. The procurement seeks two specific Hyundai vehicles: a Hybrid 5 Passenger SUV (SANTAFE MX5 25MY Hybrid 2WD 5 PAX Exclusive) and a Passenger Van (Staria Lounge Hybrid Prestige 2WD, max 8 seater). The contract will be a Firm-Fixed Price purchase order using FY25 PDW or OPA funds, with market research conducted from 9 September 2024 to 1 February 2025 revealing at least two possible sources. The contracting officer anticipates competition to determine price reasonableness, but will use alternative methods in FAR 15.4 to assess pricing if competition is not present. The justification cites DFARS 213.501 as authority for using brand name or equal specifications, with the government requiring that any offered items meet or exceed specified salient characteristics.
