Summary
Minnesota North College is procuring a Mazak CNC milling machine equipped with the proprietary Mazatrol conversational programming control for its Manufacturing Technology program. The procurement is designated single‑source because the Mazatrol control is proprietary to Mazak and only the authorized regional distributor can provide the equipment plus installation, startup training, warranty, and factory‑certified service. The vendor is required to supply the machine, perform on‑site installation and calibration, provide startup training for faculty/staff, and deliver warranty coverage and ongoing technical/service agreements.
