Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000174.pdf

This is a Justification and Approval (J&A) document for other than full and open competition under 10 U.S.C. § 3205, authorizing a sole-source procurement by the Department of Homeland Security, United States Coast Guard (USCG), Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) for Bearingless Window Track Sets (WTS) components for the MH-60T aircraft.

The USCG is procuring ten (10) units of Kamatics part number KPD6033-T Bearingless Window Track Sets on a brand-name basis from Mechatronics, Inc., doing business as National Precision Bearing (NPB), located in Preston, Washington. The contract type is a Firm Fixed-Price (FFP) Purchase Order (PO) with Fiscal Year 2026 funding through the Procurement Construction & Improvement (PC&I) account. The component consists of four assemblies with two tracks (outer and sliding tracks), where the sliding track features a proprietary wear strip owned by the OEM manufacturer, Kamatics, enabling emergency window operation for crew and passenger deployment. A previous purchase order (70Z03825PR0000404) valued at $570,000 was awarded on August 25, 2025, with performance expiring September 9, 2026. The procurement is justified because Kamatics is the sole OEM and NPB is the only ALC MRR Engineering-approved authorized distributor capable of providing the proprietary specifications, manufacturing drawings, technical data, and tooling required for this bearingless component. The J&A will be posted at SAM.gov under solicitation 70Z03826QJ0000174 with an anticipated posting date of August 1, 2026, and price fairness will be determined through comparison of proposed prices to previous purchases and similar industry items.
