This is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form for the acquisition of a 5 Axis Vertical Machining Center by DLA Aviation VICA under solicitation number SPE4A8-25-Q-0024. The procurement includes statement of work VIBB 24-25-1002 covering one unit, tooling, training, technical data, IUID tag, foundation, installation/rigging, shipping and OSHA certification.

The sole source award is being made to DMG Mori Federal Service Inc (CAGE: 96XT6) under FAR 13.5 procedures, justified by FAR 6.302-1(a)(2)(ii)(A) due to substantial duplication of costs that would result from awarding to another source. The Enterprise currently owns 14 DMG Mori CNC machines and estimates cost savings of $10,051,560 by maintaining compatibility. The procurement will be synopsized on August 17, 2023. A sources sought notification issued on March 24, 2024 received no responses. The award requires Competition Advocate approval as it exceeds $750,000 but is under $15 million. DLA Aviation plans to conduct more extensive market research through trade shows and industry engagement for future acquisitions.
