Written by GovTribe AI ·

This document is a Memorandum for Record justifying limited competition for a sole-source contract with Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Inc. for ESPRIT Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) Software maintenance renewal. The United States Army Contracting Command - New Jersey, Joint Armaments Division is seeking a 12-month maintenance renewal for ESPRIT CAM software used at WSEC Benet Laboratories for part program development and knowledge-based management systems. The total estimated value is $40,112.00, with funding from Operations & Maintenance, Army (OMA) and Research, Development, Test & Evaluation (RDT&E) sources.

The justification emphasizes that Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence is the sole creator, developer, and distributor of ESPRIT CAM software, with no viable alternative software identified during market research. The software is critical for generating complex part programs at Watervlet Arsenal, enabling engineers and technicians to optimize equipment efficiency and meet demanding production schedules. Previous market research, including a Sources Sought Notice and Blanket Purchase Agreement, yielded no alternative solutions, and the company has confirmed there are no authorized resellers in the United States capable of supporting the software.
