This brand name justification document identifies Creaform 3D scanners and metrology maintenance services as the required products and services. The 76th Civil Engineer Maintenance Group at Tinker Air Force Base seeks to utilize Creaform equipment, which directly integrates with their existing Creaform scanners, for reverse engineering of aircraft components. Switching brands would require additional training and equipment costs. Creaform scanners provide accurate measurements regardless of environmental conditions or operator skill. Market research found no other suppliers through various government databases or two RFQs. While multiple sources could provide the commodity, Creaform is deemed the only brand that will satisfy requirements. The related pre-solicitation lists Solicitation Number FA8125-23-Q-0090 for the Creaform Metrology Maintenance Service Agreement through the Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Air Force Sustainment Center.

Creaform equipment works with current software packages and workflow. The equipment designated for this purchase directly integrates with current Creaform equipment owned and operated by REACT. REACT is paying maintenance on equipment that it has owned for at least the past 4 years. REACT operates various scanning technologies to aid in reverse engineering of legacy components for varies different aircraft. Switching to a different name brand would cost the government more money to acquire not only the new equipment, but to train personnel on the new equipment. Cost to the federal government for the equipment would be at a raining overnment would be a minimum of per perso on top of the cost to have a trainer come and instruct the engineers on how to use the new equipment.
REACT operates many different 3D scanning technologies to aid in reverse engineering of legacy components. Creaform 3D Scanners ensure highly accurate measurements, regardless of the environment (instability, vibrations, thermal variation, etc.) or operator skills. The scanners use software algorithms that simplify the measurement process and greatly increase data accuracy. Both the scanner and part can move during measurement and still provide an accurate and high-quality scan.
For this reason, Creaform is the only brand that will satisfy the Government’s needs.
