    The General Services Administration (GSA) is seeking approval for a brand-name procurement of DICA Fibermax MD-HD Crane Pads and accessories to support the Naval Facilities Engineering Command at Naval Base San Diego. This requirement is justified under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), allowing for procurement without full and open competition due to the patented design of the pads, which provide weight advantages essential for the site’s deteriorating pavement and uneven ground.
