This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document supporting a Simplified Acquisition Procedure (SAP) procurement under FAR 12.102(a).

The procurement is for eight servo tail rotor spare parts (Part Number SC7282, NIIN 14-514-5292) to be utilized on MH-65 helicopters. The suggested source is Goodrich Actuation Systems SAS, located at 43 Rue des Pres, Saint-Marcel, France 27950 (UEI: K6N5GUF3Y3W4). The justification for single-source procurement is based on FAR 12.102(a) - Only One Source Reasonably Available - citing that these are highly specialized, safety-critical flight components designed and manufactured by a non-government entity. Technical data required for acquisition is available only from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The Coast Guard states that solicitation from other sources is not authorized and procurement of parts from sources other than the OEM is not authorized due to safety implications for aircraft and crew. All materials delivered must include clear, documented traceability to the OEM and a completed Certificate of Conformance certifying compliance with FAR clause 52.246-15.
