United Machining North America LLC

United Machining North America LLC George Fischer Corporation Division, doing business as Agie Charmilles, is a manufacturer and service provider of electrical discharge machines (EDMs), wire EDM systems, and precision milling equipment, operating as a prime contractor (98% of awards) on full-and-open federal procurements with no set-aside designations. The vendor is a for-profit limited liability company and a child entity of United Grinding North America, Inc., headquartered in Lincolnshire, Illinois, and registered in SAM since 2001. Agie Charmilles competes exclusively in open market, leveraging its status as original equipment manufacturer for proprietary Charmilles EDM equipment to secure sole-source awards across defense and civilian agencies.

The vendor's federal footprint centers on equipment sales and original-equipment-manufacturer maintenance and repair services. Representative recent prime work includes a $519,601 firm fixed-price purchase order from the Air Force Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (awarded January 16, 2026, through January 27, 2031) for preventative and remedial maintenance on Charmilles EDMs supporting KC-135, E-3/E-6, B-52, B-1, and B-2 aircraft production at Tinker Air Force Base; a $1,029,434 purchase order from Naval Aviation (awarded December 19, 2025, through August 31, 2026) for electrical and ultrasonic machining equipment and services at Corpus Christi; a $830,600 purchase order from Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command (awarded August 6, 2024, through August 6, 2027) for EDM maintenance at Rock Island Arsenal; and a $625,000 single-award indefinite delivery contract with the United States Mint (awarded September 30, 2022, through September 23, 2027) for service and maintenance of milling and engraving machinery at the Philadelphia facility, with a $250,000 delivery order already issued.

Customer concentration is heavily skewed to two Treasury and Army customers. The top five funding agencies account for 60% of awards by count and 79% of combined potential value, led by the U.S. Mint (70 awards, $11.2 million combined potential value) and Army TACOM (36 awards, $3.6 million combined potential value). Additional significant customers include Naval Sea Systems Command (33 awards, $1.2 million), the Bureau of Engraving and Printing (28 awards, $653 thousand), and smaller volume from the Air Force Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex, Army Research Development and Engineering Command, NASA, and NIST. The vendor holds three named indefinite delivery contracts, with the largest being the Mint single-award IDC at $625,000 ceiling. Work spans full-and-open solicitations; all recent awards reflect sole-source procurements under FAR 6.302-1(b)(2) or commercial-item sole-source authority justified by Agie Charmilles' status as OEM and sole authorized service provider.

Activity has remained flat over the past five years — ranging from two to seven awards annually (2022 through 2026) — with five awards (combined potential value $2.2 million) reaching ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months. The vendor has minimal subcontract exposure (2% of awards), with recent subs flowing to Fluor Marine Propulsion on Naval Nuclear Laboratory operations support, Honeywell Federal Manufacturing & Technologies on the National Security Campus program, and Triad National Security on Los Alamos National Laboratory work — all involving Charmilles wire EDM machine delivery or laser replacement support. The capability portfolio concentrates on commercial and industrial machinery repair and maintenance (64 awards), machine tool manufacturing (46 awards), and cutting tool and machine tool accessory manufacturing (40 awards), with product lines spanning wire EDM systems, sinker EDMs, drill systems, chillers, and spindle repair services.
