    The NASA Shared Services Center recommends negotiating exclusively with SuperLogics, Inc. for the procurement of a SuperLogics 4U Rack Mount Server due to its unique compatibility with existing systems at the Langley Aerothermodynamics Laboratory (LAL). The justification highlights that SuperLogics servers are already in use and possess tailored custom PC chassis, ensuring the required technical capabilities and the number of necessary PCIe expansion slots (7 PCIe 5.0) for advanced interfacing. Using an alternative brand could risk compatibility issues, demand additional repairs or replacements, and could disrupt mission schedules, leading to higher costs and delays. This document outlines the necessity for limiting competition based on the impracticality of sourcing comparable hardware while adhering to procurement regulations. The recommendation is categorized under Brand Name Justification, allowing a focused acquisition without seeking alternative bids, recognizing the critical nature of the equipment for government operations.
