    The document outlines a request for the procurement of a Keyence Handheld Probe Coordinate Measuring Machine XM-5000 for the NAVAIR Guns Medium Caliber Lab located in Building 3360. This team is responsible for the in-service engineering evaluation of 20mm and 25mm aircraft gun systems. Due to the complexity and precision required for measuring gun components, traditional measurement tools have proven insufficient, often requiring outsourcing that incurs high costs and delays. The XM-5000, with an accuracy of +/- 0.0001” and a suitable measurement envelope, is intended to bring this capability in-house, thereby improving response times to fleet needs and reducing outsourcing costs. A desired delivery date of July 1, 2024, is specified, indicating urgency for compliance with technical data packages for gun components. This investment aims to streamline operations and could potentially benefit other departments within the organization. The document clearly articulates the need for enhanced measurement capabilities to ensure compliance and operational efficiency within military operations.
