Sole Source Justification_Redacted.pdf

This is a Single Source Justification document for a Campbell Grinder Preventative Maintenance and Calibration Service contract. The procurement is for a C5 landing gear component repair service for 532 CMXS equipment supported by MXSG, specifically for the Campbell OD Grinder used to produce landing gear components. The 309 MXGS requires a service contract that can provide expedited repairs when the equipment becomes inoperable.

Campbell Grinder Company is being sole-sourced due to unique technical specifications and proprietary design features. Market research identified only one authorized distributor for repairs, based on specialized knowledge and proprietary rights. The company holds exclusive intellectual property rights for their design, which prevents other vendors from producing an identical product. The justification notes that future market research will continue to seek additional procurement sources, but until an alternative vendor is found, these proprietary equipment pieces will remain single-source. The contracting activity is OLH/PZIMB, and the document is dated April 2021, with a Contracting Officer determination made on 29-Apr-2025.
