About this file
This is a Memorandum for Record justifying limiting competition below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold for a sole source award to SAI Global Inc. for Aerospace Standard 9110 (AS9110) surveillance and recertification audits at Corpus Christi Army Depot (CCAD).
The requirement is for third-party AS9110 surveillance and recertification audits by an external independent registrar organization, with a base period of performance in FY2025 using Army Working Capital Funds. SAI Global Inc. is the proposed contractor as they performed CCAD's previous registrar certification. The justification explains that a different registrar cannot recertify a previous registrar's certificate without conducting an extensive Stage 1 audit, which would be time-consuming and risk CCAD losing its AS9110 certification. Loss of certification would immediately impact CCAD's commercial contracts and future workload opportunities that require AS9110 certification, including the UH-60V program. Market research was conducted by reviewing similar recent contracts and consulting knowledgeable government personnel. Previous contract awards to SAI Global Inc. include W912NW-20-P-0028 (September 2021), W912NW-22-P-0090 (September 2022), and W912NW-22-P-0090 (April 2023).
