This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The Coast Guard intends to purchase 1 Jet MAC HPU (Hydraulic Power Unit) with National Stock Number 1730-01-HS2-0879 and Part Number 1006-SA-1-15010SP-2-1 directly from Solar Group, Inc., the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The HPU is used to provide hydraulic power to aircraft on the ground and perform maintenance and servicing tasks.

The justification for sole source procurement is based on Solar Group's exclusive ownership of the technical data, specifications, and drawings required for the item. The company holds all rights to the technical information, and the government has determined it cannot develop an adequate purchase description or reverse engineer the item. The procurement is being conducted under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b), with the estimated total value redacted in the document. The procurement is limited to one unit and is justified on the grounds of technical specificity and proprietary design.
