    Brand Name Justification - 3M Hoist Safety System.pdf
    This document justifies a sole-source acquisition for 3M safety equipment needed by the WVA Surface Finishing Operations Division, amounting to $26,400.74. The rationale for noncompetitive procurement stems from the requirement for specific replacement parts that are compatible with existing equipment. 3M is the only manufacturer that provides the necessary enhancements, upgrades, and support, as they hold proprietary rights over the software and hardware involved. This equipment, which includes a Hoist, Winch, Safety Harness, Lifeline, Y-Lanyard, and Carrying Bags, is essential for safe entry into confined spaces, specifically for inspecting and cleaning chemical process tanks. The document highlights that using other brands would be impractical due to compatibility issues with the current 3M equipment. The urgency of maintaining operations and complying with safety regulations underscores the need for timely acquisition of this specific brand. The procurement will be executed following federal regulations, acknowledging that competition is impractical due to these constraints.
