Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03825QJ0000414.pdf

This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP). The Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line intends to repair 5 Fuel Management Panels for the MH-60T aircraft on a sole source basis. The items are specialized components requiring replacement during routine maintenance due to failures, corrosion, or damage.

The sole source supplier is G.E. Aviation, located in Ronkonkoma, NY, who is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The justification is based on G.E. Aviation owning all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required for repair. The complex nature of the items, which require unique production techniques and extensive testing, means the U.S. Coast Guard has determined it is uneconomical to purchase them from any other source. The items are specifically approved for use on the MH-60T helicopter by the USCG's Aircraft Configuration Control Board.
