ATTACHMENT 5 - Rev 1 REDACTED JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for commercial products and services at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) under FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1.

The Coast Guard seeks to award a sole source contract for the repair of eight Circuit Breaker Panels, Part Number 458SUE2-1, installed on HC-130J aircraft. The contract is being justified under the "Only One Source Is Available" justification type, citing that GE Aviation is the original equipment manufacturer and the sole acceptable source for this repair work. GE Aviation, located at 740 East National Road, Vandalia, OH 45377-5377 (CAGE 07639), owns the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to perform the repairs. The Coast Guard determined through market research that no other source meets USCG Engineering requirements for this component. The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through market research and comparison of the proposed price with prices from previous purchases.
