At this time, the US Army ARDEC Bent Labs Manufacturing Prototype Center (MPC) requires increased metal cutting capabilities to respond to growing demand for test specimens and prototypes made of high strength steel, alloys, and Inconel 718.

A determination by the government not to compete this proposed contract lies solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive requirement. The Government reserves the right to award without discussions. The closing date for this synopsis is 25 July 2011 16:00 Eastern Standard Time. The anticipated award date is 8 August 2011. The point of contact for this requirement is Katelyn Warren, ACC-PICA-JA, Bldg. 40, Benet Laboratories, Watervliet Arsenal, Watervliet, NY 12189-4000.
