About this award
The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a $600,415.86 firm fixed-price purchase order to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. on March 3, 2026, for the procurement of 34 cross beam W/40MM replacement components for use on MH-65 Dolphin aircraft. This non-competitive, sole-source acquisition was conducted under a Request for Quotation mechanism without small business set-aside designation. The award reflects a nonavailability class determination under Federal Acquisition Regulation 25.103(b)(1), with a Buy American Act exception documented in the contract file, confirming that Airbus Helicopters is the only known source capable of providing genuine original equipment manufacturer parts with the required Federal Aviation Administration-compliant traceability documentation. Performance is scheduled for completion by July 26, 2027, with all materials designated for delivery to the U.S. Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina.
The MH-65 Dolphin is a critical rotorcraft platform utilized by the Coast Guard for search and rescue, law enforcement, and maritime security operations. Airbus Helicopters, Inc., headquartered in Grand Prairie, Texas, maintains an established role as the primary technical support provider and original equipment manufacturer for the MH-65 fleet. This purchase order represents a single-item delivery under the company's existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with the Coast Guard (ceiling value $7.4 million, effective through December 31, 2028), which authorizes the issuance of delivery orders for spare parts necessary to sustain MH-65 fleet operations. The firm fixed-price arrangement ensures cost certainty while maintaining the specialized OEM component quality and airworthiness standards required for Coast Guard helicopter operations.
