This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document authorizing a sole source acquisition for commercial products below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

The Coast Guard intends to purchase Filter Cartridge parts (P/N: W03839, NSN: 2940-14-570-4009) in a quantity of 2 each, with an option for 4 additional each. These parts are used on C27J aircraft and are replaced during inspection due to corrosion and damage. The acquisition is justified under the "Only One Source Is Available" justification type, citing that the parts are unique to a specific aircraft and any installation, operation, or servicing must comply with original equipment manufacturer (OEM) requirements and U.S. Coast Guard authorized engineering authority specifications. Air Liquide Advanced Technologies (F037) is identified as the OEM that owns all technical data and specifications required to manufacture the parts. The suggested source is MHD Rockland INC, located at 2111 Baldwin Ave STE 8, Crofton, MD 21114, identified as an OEM-approved distributor (UEI: 4S7H4). The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing using market research and comparison of proposed prices with those from previous purchases.
