This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document under FAR 12.102 for commercial products and services at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT).

The Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line is requesting a sole source acquisition of 8 units of a structural fitting (National Stock Number 1560-01-411-5150, Part Number 70209-22103-069) required for routine maintenance and replacement on the MH-60T aircraft due to failures, corrosion, and/or damage. The suggested source is Sikorsky Aircraft, located at 6900 Main Street, Stratford, CT 06614-1385 (UEI: UTJWTSMLMFNG4). The justification for sole source procurement is based on the "Only One Source Is Available" rationale under FAR 12.102(a). The rationale explains that Sikorsky Aircraft, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), owns all technical data, specifications, and drawings required for manufacture. The item is complex and requires unique production techniques, sophisticated testing, and critical operational reliability. The Government does not possess the technical data or rights to manufacture the item independently. USCG Aviation Engineering has assigned the item Acquisition Method Code (AMC) 3, which requires direct acquisition from the actual manufacturer. The Contracting Officer's 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 pricing.
