About this award
The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a delivery order valued at $1.69 million to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. for the procurement of various spare parts and components used on the MH-65 Dolphin aircraft. The contract, awarded January 21, 2026, with performance extending through March 22, 2027, is structured as a firm fixed-price delivery order issued under a larger Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) agreement. The spare parts procurement is subject to Federal Acquisition Regulation 25.103(b)(1) nonavailability article class determinations with Buy American Act exceptions, reflecting the specialized nature of original equipment manufacturer (OEM) components for which alternative sources are not available. No small business set-aside was applied to this award, consistent with Airbus Helicopters' sole-source status as the primary technical support provider and OEM for the MH-65 helicopter fleet.
Airbus Helicopters, Inc., a foreign-owned subsidiary of the Airbus Group headquartered in Grand Prairie, Texas, serves as the critical logistics support provider for the Coast Guard's MH-65 Dolphin helicopter fleet, which is essential to the agency's search and rescue, law enforcement, and maritime security operations. The company maintains an established position as the sole-source supplier for MH-65 components including rotor blades, servo assemblies, electronic components, and structural parts, as well as maintenance and repair services. This delivery order represents one of multiple task orders issued under the Coast Guard's primary IDIQ contract with Airbus Helicopters, valued at $7.44 million through December 31, 2028, enabling the agency to efficiently obtain essential parts and services on an as-needed basis while maintaining cost certainty through firm fixed-price arrangements.
