Sole source AS9110 ISO registrar

The Department of the Army Materiel Command Contracting Command Redstone Arsenal is seeking to procure sole source AS9110 ISO Registrar audit services for the Corpus Christi Army Depot (CCAD). The contract requires third-party Aerospace Standard 9110 surveillance and recertification audits, which are critical for maintaining CCAD's certification to support commercial aerospace contracts, particularly for the UH-60V program. The procurement is being conducted as a sole source acquisition based on the incumbent contractor's established relationship and the risk that engaging a new auditor would require an extensive initial audit that could jeopardize CCAD's current commercial contracts and future aerospace opportunities. The solicitation was posted on June 17, 2025, with responses due by July 10, 2025. Market research conducted from April to May 2025 confirmed the unique position of the incumbent registrar in providing these specialized services.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is structured as a sole source award to SAI Global, Inc., the current incumbent contractor that has been providing AS9110 registrar services to CCAD. Historical contract values with SAI Global have ranged from $27,378.60 to $142,997.00, demonstrating the ongoing relationship between the parties. The contract structure includes one base period from September 2025 to August 2026, with four potential one-year option periods that could extend the contract through August 2029, for a total possible duration of five years. The work will be performed in Corpus Christi, Texas, and will be funded through the Army Working Capital Fund using a fixed-price contract mechanism. The critical nature of maintaining AS9110 certification drives the sole source approach, as any lapse in certification would immediately terminate current commercial contracts and disqualify CCAD from future aerospace business opportunities.
