This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) for a sole source acquisition by the US Coast Guard. The procurement is for repairing a Right Hand (RH) Aileron for the HC-144 aircraft, with Airbus Defense and Space identified as the only source capable of fulfilling the requirement. The justification cites unique characteristics that limit availability to one source, specifically that Airbus is the aircraft Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) with exclusive rights to technical data, specifications, and drawings for this particular aircraft component.

Key details include the procurement being for a single RH Aileron part (NSN: 1560-33-000-9711), with the acquisition targeting Airbus DS Military Aircraft as the sole supplier. The document notes that the Government does not own or possess the technical data rights, and Airbus is the only known source capable of providing the required repair services. The acquisition will be processed under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) with the project/task number C144, and the procurement is justified under the "only one responsible source" authority to satisfy agency requirements.
