About this award
The U.S. Coast Guard awarded a firm fixed-price purchase order to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. on April 15, 2026, for the procurement of 20 connecting link rigs (Part Number 366-D-187-05) for use on MH-65 Dolphin helicopters, with a contract value of $23,688.60. The award was made on a sole-source basis without small business set-asides, reflecting Airbus Helicopters' status as the Original Equipment Manufacturer and sole-source supplier for MH-65 components. The connecting link rigs are critical components required to maintain the operational readiness of the MH-65 fleet, which supports the Coast Guard's search and rescue, law enforcement, and maritime security missions. Delivery is scheduled for March 1, 2027, to the USCG Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, with final acceptance and payment contingent upon inspection by Coast Guard personnel.
The procurement was conducted as a request for quotation for commercial items under Federal Acquisition Regulation subpart 12.6, with strict requirements for OEM traceability, Federal Aviation Administration airworthiness certification, and Certificates of Conformance. This purchase order represents one of multiple delivery orders issued under the Coast Guard's broader Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with Airbus Helicopters, valued at $7.4 million and extending through December 31, 2028, which authorizes on-demand procurement of MH-65 spare parts and maintenance support.
