    Brand Name Justification_Redacted.pdf
    The Department of the Air Force has submitted a Brand Name Justification memorandum for the procurement of parts for a Monarch Lathe (OC13646), which is essential for the Tool & Die PDM shop's operations. The lathe, manufactured in 1941, is outdated, and many parts are no longer accessible through traditional supply channels, necessitating OEM manufacturing. The justification states that only Monarch Lathes, LP can supply the required parts due to proprietary data rights and design specifications. Market research identified Monarch Lathes, LP and two authorized resellers as small, women-owned businesses capable of meeting the needs outlined in the request for parts, aligned with the North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) Code 333517. The determination to restrict procurement to the Monarch brand is in compliance with FAR 13.106(b)(1). This request ultimately supports military readiness by ensuring consistent quality and compatibility with existing equipment.
