Fully Executed SSJ for Vericut Maintenance Software(1)_Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification (SSJ) document for contract award C26-157 issued by the Department of the Air Force, Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex at Tinker Air Force Base.

The 76 CMXG requires renewal of Vericut Software maintenance subscriptions for a base year plus two option years to support continuing process improvement in machining operations. The Government currently utilizes multiple Vericut software modules including CATIA integration, Verification, Multi-Axis, AUTO-DIFF, Machine Simulation, CNC Machine Probing, CATIA Model Interface, Force Milling, 3DLive Interface, and GibbsCAM-to-Vericut Interface. These software components were previously supported under separate procurement actions and are now being consolidated under a comprehensive maintenance renewal. The justification establishes that CGTech, the original equipment manufacturer and sole distributor of Vericut Software, is the only vendor able to fulfill this requirement. CGTech is registered as a Large Business (CAGE Code 1WZ87, located at 9000 Research Dr. Irvine, CA 92618, contact: Caleb Canal, Global Account Manager). Market research confirmed that CGTech is the sole manufacturer and exclusive provider, does not utilize authorized resellers, and declines to sell proprietary data rights to the Government. The Government has invested significantly in Vericut-specific machining jobs and interfaces for eighteen machine OEMs that are incompatible with alternative software. The justification concludes that circumstances support single-source procurement under RFO 12.102(a), with commitment to monitor the marketplace for future competition opportunities through periodic re-engagement with CGTech.
