Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000081.pdf

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

The Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line seek to procure 20 units of a Housing, Mech Drive component (National Stock Number 1650-01-394-7584, Part Number 42315-127) for use on MH-60T aircraft. The item is required for replacement during routine maintenance due to failures, corrosion, and/or damage. The contracting officer has justified a sole-source acquisition under FAR 12.102(a) based on only one source being reasonably available, citing urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, and industrial mobilization concerns. The suggested source is Hornet Acquisitionco, LLC, located at 3355 E La Palma Ave, Anaheim, CA 92806-2815 (UEI: DP6VFUMMTJC8). The justification rationale indicates that Hornet Acquisitionco, LLC is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and exclusive rights holder for technical data and specifications. The item is only approved by the USCG Aircraft Configuration Control Board for use on the MH-60T helicopter, and USCG Aviation Engineering has assigned an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, requiring direct acquisition from the actual manufacturer. Fair and reasonable price determination methods include market research, comparison with previous purchase prices, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE benchmarks.
