MEMORANDUM FOR RECORD

SUBJECT: Justification and Approval for Other than Full and Open Competition

1. This is a request for purchase of a Haas CNC Lathe, to support the ongoing fabrication of parts do to long lead time or unavailability. The lathe will be part of Life Cycle replacement of obsolete tooling, to modernize the allied trades machine shop.

2. The lathe must be sole-sourced through Haas because the software and controller are the same as the Haas mill. This will create consistency and allow for smooth transition between machines. In addition we will get ongoing company support.

3. Our machinist has 15 years’ experience with the Haas brand allowing him to be fully functional from the first day because he will not need to learn a new control system and its software.

4. I certify that this justification is accurate and complete to the best of my knowledge and belief.

5. Point of contact is the undersigned at sean.d.shepherd.mil@mail.mil, or 801-432- 4589.
