This document is a Brand Name Justification for the purchase of one (1) Louden 585 series 1.5 Ton, single Underhung Bridge Crane assembly and one (1) 1.5 Ton AccoLift Electric Chain Hoist with Motorized Trolley. This procurement is to support 76 MXSG and Project 25B036, specifically for the installation of a 1.5-ton overhead bridge crane in the 76 AMXG shop process. The goal is to maintain lift capability for the production shop.

• One (1) Louden 585 series 1.5 Ton, single Underhung Bridge Crane assembly (Part No. 585.3003.24s)

• One (1) 1.5 Ton AccoLift Electric Chain Hoist with Motorized Trolley (Model: 2130150-VF)

• The equipment must be brand name ACCO/Louden to ensure uniformity with existing systems.

• Installation will occur on-site by trained Tinker Air Force Base technicians; no contractor service is required.

• The document does not specify contract type, period of performance, or estimated value.

• This document is a justification for a brand name purchase, not a solicitation with submission instructions or evaluation criteria.

• The justification indicates that the acquisition will proceed through local contracting as a "full and open/small business set aside" acquisition.

• The acquisition is intended to be a "full and open/small business set aside" acquisition.

• The justification highlights the importance of maintaining uniformity with existing ACCO/Louden equipment to allow for part reutilization, easier relocation of shops, and reduced maintenance/repair time.

• Deviation from the brand name would require redesign of the crane rail and electrification, estimated at 120 engineering man-hours ($14,400 cost increase), and additional training for maintenance personnel.

• Market research was conducted using DSBS and SAM databases, and through RFQs via GSA. Several vendors were contacted, with limited positive responses indicating a need for brand name procurement.
