This is a U.S. Coast Guard justification document for restricting competition on a commercial products procurement under FAR 12.102(a), Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12.

The Coast Guard is procuring one each H.M.U P/N 6068T72P25 NSN 1680-01-494-0009 HC-144 aircraft parts from the sole source vendor Woodward, Inc. (UEI 66503), located at 5001 N Second St, Loves Park, IL 61111. The parts will be placed in ALC Ready-For-Issue Inventory for future requirements and installation on USCG aircraft. The justification for sole-source procurement is based on "Only One Source Is Available," citing urgency and the original equipment manufacturer's proprietary rights. The rationale explains that GE Aviation (OEM) no longer repairs this part, and Woodward is the OEM-approved distributor with exclusive access to proprietary technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture the parts. The Coast Guard selected market research as the fair and reasonable price determination method. The purchase request or requisition number is 6078-CB02, and the document was last updated on March 3, 2026.
