Quick Summary
The Department of the Air Force intends to award a firm fixed-price, sole source purchase order to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Inc. for the Small Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) Replacement (OC 16660) at the Oklahoma City Air Logistics Complex (OC-ALC). This action is justified by proprietary software and significant cost avoidance. Responses from interested parties are due May 26, 2026.
Scope of Work
This requirement is for the replacement of a Small CMM (OC 16660). The justification for a sole-source award to Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, Inc. is based on:
- Interoperability and Cost Avoidance: Hexagon equipment utilizes proprietary PC-DMIS software. Procuring a non-Hexagon CMM would disrupt program compatibility, necessitate recreating existing inspection programs, and require retraining personnel, incurring an estimated $4.2 million in additional costs.
- OEM-Only Sales: Hexagon, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), has no authorized dealers in the Oklahoma region and prohibits sales through third-party resellers, requiring direct procurement.
