About this file
This is a Sole Source Justification document from the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (OC-ALC) at Tinker Air Force Base dated March 22, 2024, for CBN Hyperion Cleaning Service. The document justifies the sole-source procurement of 45,000 Carats of CBN-570 100/12 and CBN-570 100/120 PW RC from Electroplating Consultants International (ECI).
The justification explains that Hyperion is the only certified supplier for Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) according to T.O. 2-1-111 for USAF Approved Processes and is Pratt & Whitney's trusted supplier. While Hyperion Materials & Technologies does not have a cage code, they have authorized ECI (cage code 0GKE9), a small business located in Broken Arrow, OK, to supply the material and supporting services. No market research was conducted due to the Technical Order requirements, and future competition is not possible unless Hyperion authorizes additional distributors. The contract was awarded to ECI for $225,000 on December 5, 2024, under contract number FA813225P0008.

DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE
OKLAHOMA CITY AIR LOGISTICS COMPLEX
(AFMC) TINKER AIR FORCE BASE OKLAHOMA
22 March 2024
TO: AFSC/PZIM
FROM: OC-ALC/OBCA for 76 PMXG
SUBJECT: Sole Source Justification for P24-009 CBN Hyperion Cleaning Service
PMXG requires the purchase of 45,0000 Carats of CBN-570 100/12 and CBN-570 100/120 PW RC. The price for this requirement is listed as
T.O. 2-1-111 for USAF Approved Processes references Hyperion as the Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) certified supplier. See Table 27-1. This will be evaluated by Pratt & Whitney (PW) as well during source demonstration for the CBN licensing process. Hyperion is Pratt & Whitney's trusted supplier
Hyperion Materials & Technologies has stated that they do not have a cage code but will authorize Electroplating Consultants International to supply the material called out for in Air Force T.O 2-1-111 and the service to support said material.
Electroplating Consultants International (ECI) 12940 S 198th East Ave, Broken Arrow, OK 74014 Cage Code 0GKE9 Small Business
No Market Research was conducted due to T.O. dictating Hyperion as the source for this material. Hyperion has stated that they do not have a cage code but will allow ECI to provide Hyperion material and supporting service to Tinker AFB. A follow up with and SAM.gov was made to verify active cage code and request ROM.
Avoiding future single source for this material is not possible (due to Technical Order dictates) unless Hyperion will be willing to authorize more than one distributor in the future.
I have determined, in accordance with FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), that the circumstances of this contract action deem only a single source is reasonably available.
