About this file
This is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Determination Memorandum for Limited Sources Acquisitions under $350,000, used to justify limiting competition to a single source or brand name.
The document authorizes a brand name purchase (Purchase Request 12431369) of X26P Taser models from AXON Enterprise INC (CAGE Code 1WHR1) to replace 58 total X26E Tasers currently deployed by the 131 MP Battalion. The Tasers are required for NGRF deployment and Soldier training on proper use. The memorandum establishes that AXON Enterprise INC is the sole manufacturer and provider of the X26P Taser and all associated components, making it the only option capable of meeting the government's requirement. The X26P model is specifically designed to replace both the 58 X26E Tasers and 20 MTOE Tasers, with other Taser models deemed insufficient for operational deployment. Market research completed on April 17, 2026 confirmed AXON Enterprise INC's exclusive manufacturing status. The contracting officer, Jeremy Greenstein, approved the justification on May 6, 2026 under FAR 16.505(a)(4) Brand Name authority, certifying that limiting competition to this single source is in the government's best interest. The customer, SFC Ryan Diede, acknowledged that no alternative actions can remove barriers to competition, as AXON already provides these Taser models to the government and other variations are insufficient.
