Small Business Set-Aside for Rosemount Inc X-STREAM Enhanced General Purpose Process Gas Analyzer (XEGP) Per Attachments

Other / Unclassified

This document is a Brand Name Justification Memorandum for the acquisition of one (1) X-STREAM Enhanced General Purpose Process Gas Analyzer (XEGP). The purpose is to procure this specific analyzer to monitor O2 and CO2 levels within the Saturation Fly-Away Diving System (SATFADS) hyperbaric chambers and dive bell for divers' life support.

This justification outlines the rationale for a brand-name-only acquisition, citing FAR 6.302-1(c). The government requires the XEGP model because it is currently installed in the SATFADS, and replacing it with a different manufacturer's product would lead to potential integration issues, risks to divers' safety, and significant costs associated with re-certification and re-training. The acquisition will use simplified acquisition procedures and is estimated to be greater than $25,000.00, and will be synopsized on SAM.gov. The contracting officer has determined that awarding on a brand-name basis to authorized resellers of Rosemount, Inc. equipment represents the best value.
