Sole Source Award - HAAS CNC Machine Servicing

This Single Source Justification document outlines the rationale for awarding a contract to Phillips Corporation Inc., Federal Division, for the biannual servicing, reactive servicing, and parts for four Haas CNC machines for the 439 CONF/PKA. The estimated cost for the base year and four option years is $260,000. Phillips Corporation is justified as the sole source because they are the exclusive distributor of Haas CNC Machine Tools and the only provider of factory-certified service, training, and applications work for U.S. Government facilities. This exclusivity ensures warranty preservation, equipment reliability, and operational safety, as only Haas-certified technicians are authorized for maintenance and repairs. Efforts to obtain competition through SAM.gov revealed that other vendors would need to subcontract to Phillips, increasing costs. The government plans to continue monitoring the market and the agreement between HAAS and Phillips Corp to explore future competitive acquisitions if the exclusive arrangement changes. The Contracting Officer determined that a single source is reasonably available, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1).
