Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000133.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for the U.S. Coast Guard authorizing a sole source procurement for commercial products and services below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT) under FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1.

The U.S. Coast Guard's Aviation Logistics Canter (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line intends to purchase eight closure items (National Stock Number 1650-01-HS2-0510, Part Number 70500-24009-154) on a sole source basis from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, located at 6900 Main Street, Stratford, CT 06614 USA (UEI: UTJWTSLMFNG4). These closures are required for replacement during routine maintenance on the MH-60T aircraft due to failures, corrosion, and/or damage. The justification establishes that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and Cage Code 78286, owns all technical data, specifications, and drawings required for manufacture. The item is complex and must meet critical operational and reliability requirements through unique production techniques, and the Government does not possess rights to the technical data. USCG Aviation Engineering assigned the item an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating direct acquisition from the manufacturer. The document indicates the fair and reasonable price determination methods used included market research, comparison of proposed price with prices from previous purchases, current price list, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE.
