Limiting-Comp-under-SAT_Repairs Reform Grinding Machine Redacted_Redacted.pdf

This is a Memorandum for Record - Limiting Competition document for a non-personal services contract to repair and test a Reform Grinding Machine for the Corpus Christi Army Depot (CCAD) Machine Shop. The procurement is for a single-source repair of a Campbell Grinder Model 750-36-36-36/36, with a 12-month period of performance. The total estimated value is redacted, and the contract will be funded through AWCF (Army Working Capital Fund) for Fiscal Year 2026.

The justification for sole-source procurement stems from the significant investment already made in this specific grinding machine, including its accessories and training. The machine is critical to CCAD's Machine Shop #2, which supports complex workloads of engine and transmission repairs for Army aviation equipment. Market research was conducted, including a Sources Sought notice on sam.gov and outreach to potential vendors, but no alternative repair solutions were found that could meet the required capabilities. Failure to procure repairs would result in work stoppages and negatively impact the depot's mission of processing rotary wing aircraft repairs.
