Attachment 3. Brand Name or Equal J&A 9 MXS CAD_CAM Software_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the 9th Maintenance Squadron (9 MXS) at Beale Air Force Base, California. The government requires one CAD/CAM perpetual license software program with advanced machining capabilities, including multi-axis machining, CNC integration, simulation, and verification capabilities. The specific requirement is for Mastercam or an equivalent software that supports manufacturing requirements for aircraft metals technology, with full operational delivery required by September 30, 2025.

The solicitation was initially posted on SAM.gov on March 27, 2025, identifying multiple capable vendors, but was subsequently cancelled on May 28, 2025, due to budget constraints. The acquisition is structured as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 541519, with a small business size standard of $34M. The Contracting Officer, Cali McVay, has determined that only a single source is reasonably available, with market research planned to re-solicit a competitive small business-able solution. Quotes are due by August 19, 2025, at 10:00 AM PT, with a minimum one-year warranty required for the software.
