P26-004 F107 Cleaning Tank- Single Source Justification_PCO Signed_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Sole Source Justification for an F107 Cleaning Tank from the Department of the Air Force, Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex, dated 8 August 2025. The document justifies acquiring a specialized industrial cleaning system from Automated Cleaning Technologies, Inc. (ACT), the original equipment manufacturer of a proprietary F107 cleaning tank. The system supports engine overhaul activities by ensuring components are properly degreased and decontaminated, featuring a two-stage tank setup for chemical solution cleaning and final rinse.

Market research was conducted using System for Award Management (SAM) databases, reviewing small businesses including 8(a), HUBZone, Service-Disabled Veteran Owned, and Women Owned Small Business categories. However, only one vendor (ACT) was found capable of meeting the specific requirements. The justification emphasizes ACT's unique positioning, noting they possess detailed knowledge of cleaning solution chemistry, operational flow, and can provide a drop-in replacement system without extensive onboarding. The company is located in San Antonio, Texas, is classified as a small business, and has a cage code of 1DQ30.
