This document is a memorandum justifying the non-competitive procurement of Autodesk software licenses. It outlines the need for Autodesk AutoCAD and Production Manufacturing Collection applications for the Combatant Craft Engineering Technology Center Lab #358 personnel to create, edit, and publish boat & craft drawings and models. The purchase is for a year of maintenance, support, and access to updated software.

This justification highlights that Autodesk products are considered essential due to proprietary rights, restrictive licensing, and industry-wide adoption by subcontractors and suppliers for Navy and DoD projects. The required drawing formats (AutoCAD V2022) are critical for compatibility with existing Computer Aided Manufacturing (CAM) tooling. Research indicated no other manufacturers could provide compatible software meeting these specific government requirements. The software is available on GSA contract N66001-19-A-0051.
