The document outlines a determination memorandum for sole source acquisitions under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for the procurement of Performance Assurance (PA) services for Haas brand metalworking machines at the Missouri Aviation Classification Repair Activity Depot. The contracting officer can limit solicitation to a single source if it is justified that only one can meet the government's requirements. Phillips Corporation Inc. (the sole distributor for Haas CNC Machine Tools under government contracts) is proposed as the contractor, backed by an official letter confirming their exclusive distribution rights. Market research indicated that all relevant contracts over a seven-year period were awarded to Phillips, which was not classified as a small business for the associated NAICS code. Pricing analysis showed consistent increases, ensuring price fairness based on historical contract data. The government aims to address competition barriers for future acquisitions by following regulations as necessary. The memorandum concludes with the contracting officer’s approval to proceed with this sole-source justification contingent on available funding and authorization for acquisition.
