About this opportunity

The Department of the Air Force Materiel Command Lifecycle Management Center at Wright Patterson Air Force Base is seeking to procure a 5-Axis CNC Gantry Mill through solicitation FA860425RB027. The government intends to acquire either the Onsrud X-Series machine on a brand name basis or an equal product that meets the specified salient characteristics, including a work envelope of 366" x 21" x 14", a 24,000 RPM spindle rated at 18 kW, and comprehensive training and support packages. The procurement includes extensive requirements for in-person training for up to 7 personnel, a 24-month warranty, 5 years of software technical support, and a complete tooling package. The contract will be evaluated using Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) criteria as a firm-fixed price arrangement. Questions were due August 7, 2025, at 2:00 PM EDT, and proposals must be submitted via email to Sam Ekberg and Andrew Petersen by September 2, 2025, at 3:00 PM EDT following a recent amendment that extended the original August 15 deadline.

This procurement is structured as a 100% small business set-aside under NAICS code 333517 (Machine Tool Manufacturing) with a size standard of 500 employees. The solicitation initially designated this as a Women-Owned Small Business (WOSB) set-aside, though documentation shows it as a total small business opportunity. The contract requires delivery within 200 calendar days from award (extended from the original 150 days), with the manufacturing facility required to be within 500 miles of Wright Patterson AFB. Performance will occur at Building 70A, Wright Patterson Air Force Base in Dayton, Ohio, where the single CNC gantry mill will be delivered, installed, and commissioned. Offerors must be registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) and include all costs including freight for the oversized specialty equipment in their proposals, with the government open to commercial financing arrangements and progress payments in accordance with FAR guidelines.
