J And A Redacted_Redacted.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 12.102(a).

The Coast Guard seeks to procure Throttle Quadrant A components (P/N: 4260-0021-2 and 4260-0021-3) on a sole source basis from Safran Electronics & Defense (003T0), located in Grand Prairie, Texas. These items are required for test, evaluation, repair, and modification work and will be replaced during Product Depot Maintenance (PDM) due to corrosion and/or damages. The justification cites FAR 12.102(a) authority, establishing that only one source is reasonably available based on unique characteristics specific to a particular aircraft. The items are unique to the Throttle Quadrant A system and must comply with Aircraft Organizational Equipment (AOE) requirements and USCG-authorized engineering standards. Safran Electronics & Defense is identified as the authorized Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) repair facility that owns all technical data and specifications necessary to repair or modify these items; alternative OEM sources do not own the requisite technical data, and it would be uneconomical for the government to purchase these rights separately. The contracting officer selected market research as the fair and reasonable price determination method. The Purchase Request or Requisition Number is 2025338-ND02.
