NOAA intends to award a sole-source purchase order to Phillips Corporation for a Haas ST-20 CNC Lathe Machine and compatible tooling, to be delivered to the National Data Buoy Center at Stennis Space Center, MS. The sole-source justification is based on the need for compatibility with existing Haas equipment, software, tooling, and trained personnel at the facility. Introducing a different brand would require separate proprietary software, new tooling, and costly workforce retraining, creating operational risks. Interested firms that believe they can fully meet the requirements may submit substantiating documentation within 15 days of this notice for consideration of a competitive procurement. No budget amount or submission deadline is specified.
