Title: Notice of Brand Name NSN Awards

In accordance with (IAW) FAR 8.405-6(a)(2), GSA is making available a notice of Brand Name National Stock Number (NSN) award.

GSA-s Supply Chain Management (SCM) Contracting Division is seeking feedback from industry regarding the Brand Name National Stock Numbers (NSNs) awarded and published with this notice.

The NSNs were established as Brand Name (BN) specific at the point they were created, and therefore the Item Purchase Descriptions (IPDs) are likewise written as BN specific. Supporting information was provided at the point of NSN/IPD creation, however in some cases that information may no longer be available or may no longer be relevant (see FAR Part 10), and as Brand Name specific items (see FAR 8.405-6(b)), GSA is seeking to verify whether the need described by the IPDs can in fact only be met by the one particular manufacturer cited (the manufacturer and part number indicated in the IPD), or whether other manufacturers- products (or brands) can be offered which can meet the requirement (see FAR 8.405-6(b)).

In order to meet the continued need for these items on behalf of our DoD customers, GSA has added these items to contract.

The same question initially asked at the RFI regarding these NSNs is therefore re-posited to industry again and shall remain open for continuous feedback:

Are these manufacturer names and part numbers, as listed in the IPDs, the only manufacturers that will meet the requiremen...
