This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification and Authorization (J&A) document for a sole source procurement under FAR 12.102(a), Class Deviation 25-21.

The Coast Guard's Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line seeks to procure 12 units (with an option for 10 additional units) of a Pump-Motor Windshield (National Stock Number 1680-01-161-4262, Part Number 164A220) on a sole source basis from Globe Motors, Inc., located at 2275 Stanley Ave, Dayton, OH 45404-1226 (UEI: CM2VJP1VKNN3). The item is required for replacement during routine maintenance of MH-60T aircraft due to failures, corrosion, or damage. The justification for sole source procurement is based on the "Only One Source Is Available" rationale, citing that Globe Motors is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and holds exclusive rights to technical data, specifications, and drawings. USCG Aviation Engineering has assigned this item an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating a direct acquisition from the manufacturer. The procurement prioritizes safety and reliability, as sourcing from any supplier other than the OEM would compromise aircraft and aircrew safety. To establish fair and reasonable pricing, the contracting officer will utilize multiple price determination methods including market research, comparison with previous purchase prices, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE (Independent Government Cost Estimate).
