About this opportunity
This Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice from GSA provides details of its award of 109 brand name National Stock Numbers to an unknown vendor on January 16, 2024 under the MRO Requisition Channel Generation Two BPA contract. The NSNs were originally established and the associated item purchase descriptions written as brand name specific. GSA sought to verify if the needs could only be met by the cited manufacturers and part numbers or if other manufacturers' products could also meet the requirements, soliciting industry feedback on 299 brand name NSNs through a Request for Information from April to May 2023 and on the 109 awarded NSNs in August 2023.
Notice text
In accordance with (IAW) FAR 8.405-6(a)(2), GSA is making available a notice of Brand Name National Stock Number (NSN) award.
GSA’s Supply Chain Management (SCM) Contracting Division sought feedback from industry regarding the Brand Name National Stock Numbers (NSNs) awarded and published with this notice.
The NSNs were established as Brand Name (BN) specific at the point they were created, and therefore the Item Purchase Descriptions (IPDs) are likewise written as BN specific. Supporting information was provided at the point of NSN/IPD creation, however in some cases that information may no longer be available or may no longer be relevant (see FAR Part 10), and as Brand Name specific items (see FAR 8.405-6(b)), GSA sought to verify whether the need described by the IPDs can in fact only be met by the one particular manufacturer cited (the manufacturer and part number indicated in the IPD), or whether other manufacturers’ products (or brands) could be offered which can meet the requirement (see FAR 8.405-6(b)).
Prior to adding the NSNs to contract, GSA sought industry feedback with a Request for Information (RFI) published from Apr-May 2023 for 299 BN NSNs. GSA received no feedback from industry in response to that RFI. These NSNs were solicited in August 2023. Of those solicited 109 NSNs were awarded (via post-award ‘Batch Add’ Modification action on the MRO Requisition Channel Generation Two BPA) in January 2024.
Should there be any feedback regarding this notice, email fssi.mro-req@gsa.gov with the following format:
