SOLE SOURCE: Haas Wireless Intuitive Probing System Components for NOAA/NWS
The U.S. Department of Commerce, through NOAA, intends to award a sole-source purchase order to Phillips Corporation for the Haas Wireless Intuitive Probing System (WIPS) and associated components. The work will be performed at the National Data Buoy Center at Stennis Space Center, MS. The procurement includes installation, software updates, and service for existing Haas CNC mills and a lathe. Phillips Corporation is the exclusive distributor for Haas CNC equipment for U.S. government facilities, and using third-party probes would create integration risks and additional costs. No budget amount or submission timelines are specified in the description.
