This document is a SAP Non-Competitive Procurement Justification Memorandum for acquiring MasterCAM software from CNC Software, Inc. The software is a pc-based CAD/CAM package used to control CNC machine tools in mechanical component production, with capabilities to model solids and wireframes and import/export surfaces. CNC Software, located in Tolland, CT, is the regional software provider for MasterCAM and has been the sole vendor for the organization for 22 years.

The procurement is justified as a sole source acquisition due to the software being the industry standard for the shop's current operations. The estimated total price is $25,813 for the base year, with options for two additional years bringing the total to $60,813. The required delivery date is 11/30/25. Changing to a different software brand would require a substantial restart effort, estimated to take at least six months and potentially cost around $90,000 in labor and materials, while also risking production disruptions and revenue loss for Division 89.
