A REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

SAC or Helicomb is the OEM and they own the rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to test and evaluate this item. The USCG is conducting a limited sole source acquisition. Any offeror that is able to provide the sole source items and part numbers including the ability to submit documentation showing clear traceability to the OEM or to demonstrate that they are a distributor officially authorized by the OEM will be considered for award.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEQUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE.

The part to be procured is complex and must meet critical operational and reliability requirements, the achievement of which require unique production techniques and extensive and/or sophisticated testing. The Government does not own or possess any rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture this item and it has been determined that it is uneconomical to purchase them. In addition, the Government has not developed the technical data required to manufacture this part and has no plans to do so.

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY, THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REMOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS TO

COMPETITION BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED.

As previously stated, the Government does not own or possess any rights to the technical data, specifications and drawings required to manufacture this item which has prevented the USCG from being able to provide an adequate technical description to potential new sources. Therefore, it is difficult to take steps to foster competition when the manufacturing, performance, and acceptance data are proprietary to the OEM.
