ATTACHMENT 4 - REV 1 - REDACTED JUSTIFICATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL AND OPEN COMPETITION - 70Z03826QH0000059.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for a sole-source procurement under FAR 12.102(a). The purchase request number is 2026036-HD01, with an estimated total value over the Micro-Purchase Threshold but up to the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

The Coast Guard is seeking to procure repair services for five Data Interface units, part number 207475-201, installed on HC-130 aircraft, with an optional quantity of five additional units. The sole-source justification is based on the "Only One Source Is Available" criterion, as Kaman Measuring & Memory LLC of New Britain, Connecticut (CAGE: 15W50) is identified as the only authorized repair center for this material and the OEM. Kaman owns the exclusive technical data, specifications, and drawings required to repair the Data Interface Units, and no other source meets USCG Engineering requirements. The contracting officer's fair and reasonable price determination methods include market research and comparison of the proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases. The procurement is for commercial products and services at or below the SAT.
