Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QJ0000178.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for a commercial products procurement under FAR 12.102(a), Class Deviation 25-21, Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12.

The Coast Guard's Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line seeks to procure five fairing aircraft components (National Stock Number 1560-01-335-5540, Part Number 70205-22308-046) for use on MH-60T aircraft. The requirement is for replacement during routine maintenance due to failures from corrosion and/or damage. The suggested source is Sikorsky Aircraft, located at 6900 Main Street, Stratford, Connecticut 06614-1385 (UEI: UT.JWTSLFMFNG4). The Coast Guard is pursuing a sole source acquisition under the "Only One Source Is Available" justification type, citing that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Cage Code 78286), as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), owns all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required for manufacturing. The Government determined that acquisition directly from the manufacturer is the most economical approach and that an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3 applies, requiring direct purchase from the actual manufacturer. The contracting officer's fair and reasonable price determination methods include market research, comparison of proposed price with prices from previous purchases, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE.
