Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000162.pdf

This document 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), filed under FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1.

The Coast Guard is justifying a sole source acquisition from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation for eight (8) lever assemblies (National Stock Number 1560-01-HS1-6199, Part Number 70850-82015-047). These components are required for the Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line to support routine maintenance and replacement of the MH-60T helicopter due to failures, corrosion, and/or damage. The contracting officer has selected the "Only One Source Is Available" justification type, citing the manufacturer's exclusive ownership of all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required for this item. Sikorsky Aircraft, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), is the only approved source per the USCG Aircraft Configuration Control Board for use on the MH-60T helicopter. The item has been assigned an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating a direct purchase from the actual manufacturer is required. The contracting officer will employ market research, comparison of proposed price with previous purchases, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE to ensure fair and reasonable pricing.
