The Department of Defense, specifically the Department of the Air Force, intends to award a contract for the acquisition of an Omax water cutter, with Phillips Corporation Inc. identified as the sole source provider. This procurement is essential for the Air Force's Metals Technology shops, as the Omax machine meets specific operational requirements that no other alternatives can fulfill. The justification for this sole-source acquisition is based on the unique capabilities of the Omax water cutter and the urgency of operational demands, with funding contingent upon the availability of appropriated funds.
