    NAME BRAND JUSTIFICATION_Zephyr.pdf
    The Kentucky Army National Guard (KYARNG) seeks approval for a brand name purchase of specific Air Rescue Hoist equipment under Purchase Request Number 12209539. This firm fixed price contract will procure three Zephyr ZL-1051-2 E-bag Kits, which include essential components intended for compatibility with the Breeze style rescue hoists already in use by the Kentucky National Guard. The justification for this brand-name decision is based on statutory authority 11.105(a)(1), stating that no equivalent products are available that meet the stringent requirements outlined in relevant military regulations and technical manuals. The market research conducted on February 13, 2025, concluded that there are currently insufficient providers capable of fulfilling this need due to its highly specialized nature. There are no foreseeable actions to remove barriers to competition for these specific requirements, reinforcing the necessity for a sole-source procurement. The contracting officer, Stephen D. Ramsey, has officially endorsed this justification.
