Sole Source JA LASER_Redacted.pdf

This document is a Single Source Justification (Simplified Acquisition) for the 355th Contracting Squadron. The procurement is for a Laser Engraver and Accessories, with six specific line items including a laser engraver, air filter/water separator kit, oxygen regulator kit, alignment tool kit, Lightburn Pro software, and PiBurn V rotary roller. The requirement is for a laser engraver capable of accommodating formats/sizing larger than 50 inches.

The acquisition was conducted through the SBA Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) program, with direct outreach to WOSB vendors on 12 August 2025. Market research determined no reasonable expectation of more than one offer from a SBA-certified WOSB vendor, and the anticipated contract price does not exceed thresholds that would eliminate it from being a WOSB Sole Source. The contracting activity (355 CONS) aims to utilize the most efficient and affordable services to meet customer needs, with efforts to preclude future single source awards through ongoing market research.
