    The document outlines a brand name/sole source justification for procuring specific communication equipment, primarily comprising General Dynamics’ URC-300 UHF/VHF Transceiver Assembly. The justification is necessitated by the requirement for compatibility with existing systems and the unique technical specifications of the items, which disallow competitive bidding per various federal acquisition regulations (FAR). The regulatory authority references include instances of limited competition under FAR guidelines due to urgency and the exclusive capability of one source to meet stringent quality standards. It emphasizes that obtaining different equipment would cause significant redesign efforts and subsequent costs that the government cannot recoup. The rationale for circumventing full competition rests on ensuring compatibility and function without incurring delays or heightened expenses. The document concludes with an assurance that the current situation will be regularly evaluated for potential future competition, depending on market developments. This justification underscores the importance of maintaining operational integrity and cost-effectiveness in government procurement processes.
