Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document is a Brand Name Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for asphalt emulsion and pavement sealcoat products. It explains the rationale for potentially soliciting from a single source or brand name.

• Section A: General Contract Information: Identifies the contracting activity (673 Contracting Squadron), program name (Asphalt Emulsion and Pavement Sealcoat), and purchase request number.
• Section B: Description of the Supplies/Services Required: Details the need for an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract for asphalt emulsion and seal coat products to maintain pavements at JBER. It specifies that the requested items are approved by the Air Force Civil Engineering Center (AFCEC) and include GSB-78 and GSB-88 products.
• Section C: Justification for Soliciting from a Single Source or Brand Name: Explains that only three types of GSB products (GSB-78, GSB-88, and gripflex) are AFCEC-approved for use on JBER's aprons, taxiways, and shoulders. It highlights that the required products (GSB-78 and GSB-88) need to be mixed and used immediately, and JBER lacks the capacity to store and heat them.
• Section D: Efforts to Obtain Competition: States that while there are only three approved seal coats, multiple companies can provide GSB-78 and GSB-88 products. The requirement will be posted on SAM.gov to promote competition.
• Section E: Steps to Preclude Future Single Source or Brand Name Awards: Indicates that AFCEC is the lead agency for these requirements and that the 773rd CES will monitor the market for potential alternatives.
• Section F: Contracting Officer's Determination: The Contracting Officer determined that only a single brand is reasonably available for this contract action.

This document provides critical information for potential bidders regarding the specific types of products (GSB-78, GSB-88) required for pavement maintenance at JBER. It clarifies the justification for potentially limiting the source and outlines efforts to ensure competition. Bidders should note the approved product types and the location of the requirement posting on SAM.gov.
