CAD / CAM Services - an industry leading computer-aided design and engineering firm with expertise in 3D scanning, modeling, and conversions - announced it has been awarded a General Services Administration (GSA) Multiple Award Schedule (MAS). This allows the Federal Government and its agencies to easily and quickly secure highly accurate 2D and 3D CAD services; 3D scanners and scanning services; 3D printers; and 3D printing (Additive Manufacturing).
GSA is the premier procurement source where all federal agencies, as well as many state and local governments, can access CAD / CAM Service’s offerings on GSA Advantage!, the government’s electronic online ordering system as well as other GSA purchasing resources and tools.Â
The MAS certification enables CAD / CAM Services to provide IDIQ (Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity) and long-term, government-wide contracts to any government buyer at volume discount pricing. GSA schedules offer streamlined procedures to increase acquisition speed, access to small businesses to support socioeconomic goals, FAR compliance, pre-qualified contractors, pre-negotiated ceiling prices to achieve the best value, and access to emerging technologies and innovative solutions.
 As one of the few CAD engineering firms in the world certified for high precision conversions by both the aerospace industry and the Department of Defense (DoD), CAD / CAM Services is well-known for its CAD Perfect® conversions. Its engineers are capable of converting any CAD format file into any other CAD system. Its highly experienced CAD engineers can also make the model (or drawing) compliant with any internal aerospace, government, Department of Homeland Security (DHS) or DoD standard.
As a renowned engineering design firm founded in 1988, CAD / CAM Services pioneered the restoration of Mylar drawings – which are often in disrepair - and then converting those into accurate digital formats. Mylar is an obsolete medium that was once very common in engineering and construction because it was more stable than paper. However, over time they degrade, and the accuracy of the drawing is often negatively impacted. With millions of Mylar drawings still in circulation and usually inadequately stored, converting this information into accurate - and useable digital formats has become increasingly important.Â
CAD / CAM Services also is a leader in the creation of digital twins. These virtual replicas of physical devices can be utilized to run simulations before a device is built and deployed. Digital twins are increasingly be used to alter how technologies such as IoT, AI and analytics are optimized.
With its 3D scanning and reverse engineering expertise, CAD / CAM Services is capable of reverse engineering replacement parts for both new and older aircraft to further assist aerospace suppliers. CAD / CAM models include full assemblies that are accurate to ±.002” over any X, Y, & Z axis.
