Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000147.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for a sole-source procurement under 10 U.S.C. § 3205.

The Department of Homeland Security's United States Coast Guard, Aviation Logistics Center, Medium Range Recovery Division is procuring a 41-piece Tailcone and Tail Rotor Pylon Kit (materials-only) with MH-60R production parts equivalent to those in the MH-60T aircraft. The kit is essential for the Service Life Extension Program to maintain airworthiness and extend operational life of the MH-60T fleet, as existing tail section components have reached or are nearing their 19,000-hour service life limit. The sole contractor is Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation, located at 6900 Main Street, Stratford, CT 06614 (CAGE Code 78286). The contract type is Firm Fixed-Price delivery order under an existing Basic Ordering Agreement with Operations and Support funding for Fiscal Year 2026. The estimated total value is redacted. Solicitation number is 70Z03826QJ0000147, with a Notice of Intent planned for posting on SAM.gov on 6/17/2026.

Sikorsky is the only authorized source because the specifications, manufacturing drawings, technical data, and tooling required to manufacture the kit are proprietary to Sikorsky as the Original Equipment Manufacturer. The USCG does not possess proprietary data rights, and no authorized distributors exist. Market research conducted from August 2025 through June 2026 confirmed Sikorsky as the sole approved source through reviews of GSA, Federal Logistics Information System, FedMall, DHS contract vehicles, and direct OEM contact. No other sources have expressed interest in this acquisition. Buy American Statute requirements apply to this procurement.
