Recommendation and Determination to Solicit from One Source or Brand Name

This document recommends negotiating with a single vendor for the acquisition of supplies or services, deeming competition impractical. Specifically, it justifies the procurement of the Phantom T3610 Camera from Vision Research.

• The current configuration and data acquisition software are directly compatible with this unit.

• Personnel are already trained on this model.

• Unique characteristics of the item and supporting rationale.

• Market research substantiates the need for this specific source/brand.

• Retaining the same manufacturer avoids additional government costs for camera setup, proprietary software, and data acquisition concerns.

• New proprietary software may not offer the same functionality as the current system.

• This camera includes specifications not found on other devices.

• Additional costs for upgrades of laptops, desktops, and various software.

• Potential delays in implementation due to required training for a different camera and vendor.

• Impacts testing and the effectiveness of laboratory support for programs like the International Space Station, Exploration Ground Control, Center Engineering, and Spaceport Operations.

• Estimated period of performance or lead-time for delivery is 30 days ARO (After Receipt of Order).

• The total estimated cost is to be entered.
