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

The procuring activity is the Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line, which seeks to purchase a ROLLER, SEAT component (National Stock Number 1680-01-HS3-1880, Part Number KPD5637) for use on MH-60T aircraft. The requirement is for replacement during routine maintenance due to failures, corrosion, and/or damage. The base quantity is 200 units with an option quantity of 500 units. The sole source manufacturer is KAMATICS CORPORATION, located at 1330 Blue Hills Avenue, Bloomfield, Connecticut 06002-5303, with UEI GXK6HT9PN3P9. The justification for brand name restriction is that KAMATICS CORPORATION holds all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required for manufacturing this specialized item, which is the only design approved by the USCG's Aircraft Configuration Control Board for use on the MH-60T helicopter and carries an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 5, requiring direct procurement from the prime contractor. The document indicates the contracting officer will employ market research, comparison of proposed price with previous purchases, current price lists, and comparison with similar items in related industries to determine fair and reasonable pricing.
