This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Simplified Acquisition Procedures) for FAR 12.102. The acquisition is for specialized items for the MH-60T aircraft at the Aviation Logistics Center and Medium Range Deployment, specifically 60 Boot Retainers (NSN 1560-01-307-3152) and 10 Pressure Gauges (NSN 6685-01-290-3124). The only approved source is Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation in Stratford, CT, due to the company owning all technical data, specifications, and drawings required for manufacturing these complex components. The USCG Aviation Engineering has assigned these items an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating direct procurement from the actual manufacturer. The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through methods including market research, comparison with previous purchases, current price lists, and comparison with similar items in related industries.
