About this award
The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $53,187.30 to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. on April 6, 2026, for the procurement of Connecting Link Rigs (Part Number 366D18707) to support the MH-65 Dolphin helicopter fleet. The award was made without a small business set-aside, reflecting Airbus Helicopters' status as the sole-source Original Equipment Manufacturer for MH-65 components. Delivery is required by November 9, 2026, to the Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, with manufacturing and support services performed in Grand Prairie, Texas. This procurement followed a competitive quotation solicitation (RFQ 70Z03826QB0000071) issued in March 2026, which specifically required 15 units of the connecting link assemblies with verified OEM traceability and Federal Aviation Regulation Part 21 certification for newly manufactured items.
The MH-65 Dolphin serves as a critical asset for the Coast Guard's search and rescue, law enforcement, and maritime security operations. Airbus Helicopters, Inc., a subsidiary of the global Airbus Group, maintains its position as the primary technical support provider and sole-source supplier for the MH-65 fleet, having received numerous task orders for individual aircraft components and maintenance services. This purchase order represents a continuation of the company's ongoing support obligations under its existing Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with the Coast Guard, valued at $7.4 million through December 2028, which authorizes the procurement of spare parts necessary to sustain fleet operations.
