Alternately, you may also contact TSgt Jennifer George at (406) 731-4554 or email address jennifer.george@malmstrom.af.mil . Brand Name Justification: FINDINGS 1. The canopies were included in the original order for the trucks they are going on. Warner Robins ALC made a mistake and the canopies did not come with the service bodies. Warner Robins ALC gave the customer the funds to correct the mistake and get the needed canopies. 2. In accordance with (IAW) 10 USC 2304(c)(1), the property or services needed by the agency are available from only one responsible source or only from a limited number of responsible sources and no other type of property or services will satisfy the needs of the agency. To ensure proper form, fit, and function it would be best to match the current Knapheide truck bodies with the corresponding Knapheide canopy roof. If a different vendor is used the new canopies may not fit or perform as required. Using any other canopy than Knapheide on a Knapheide service body will void the warranty. 3. IAW FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), for purchases less than the SAT, the Contracting Officer may make a determination to solicit for "brand name" only. DETERMINATION Based on the above findings it is hereby determined that a brand-name procurement for this requirement of Knapheide Truck Service Body Canopies is in the best interest of the Government.
