W51AA1-26-C-A009 J&A

This noncompetitive, firm-fixed-price contract, valued at an estimated 11.5 million dollars, is a sole-source procurement under FAR 6.103-1(b) and Title 10 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) for a turnkey CNC precision machining solution. The award is managed by the U.S. Army Contracting Command-Aberdeen Proving Ground, Tobyhanna Division, for the Tobyhanna Army Depot in Pennsylvania. The primary objective is to establish an organic manufacturing capability for high-precision small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (sUAS) motor components, utilizing Eurotech machinery provided by Alta Enterprises Inc. The procurement includes 16 BMX45-SY2 Rapido CNC Turning Centers and 4 Kobra 20SLY-X Swiss Lathes, encompassing all necessary tooling, automation, software, installation, calibration, and operator training. The contract specifies a twelve-month period of performance, with equipment deliveries beginning three months after the award. Technical requirements are mission-critical, demanding a machining accuracy of plus or minus 0.0002 inches, 4-axis or 5-axis capability, and fully automated lights-out operation with robotic bar feeding. To meet facility constraints, the entire solution must fit within a 450-square-foot footprint. Performance is measured by a production throughput of one unit per month across all component types. Inspection and acceptance will occur at the Tobyhanna Army Depot, where the system must be validated against these high-precision tolerances and operational readiness standards to avoid critical production bottlenecks and ensure warfighter safety.
