Attachment 2- Redacted J and A- 70Z03826QJ0000199.pdf

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

The Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line seeks to procure 50 units of a FIRE LEGEND item (National Stock Number 1680-01-HS1-3396, Part Number 23008-001) for the MH-60T aircraft. The item is required for replacement during routine maintenance due to failures, corrosion, and damage. The justification for the brand name acquisition identifies Korry Electronics Co., located at 11910 Beverly Park, Everett, WA 98204 USA (UEI: GZGDLWWS8N46), as the sole source. The rationale establishes that Korry Electronics, as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), owns all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings, and possesses exclusive manufacturing knowledge and sophisticated testing capabilities. The item has been approved by the USCG Aircraft Configuration Control Board for use on the MH-60T helicopter, and USCG Aviation Engineering designated it with an Acquisition Method Code of 5, requiring purchase only from the prime contractor. The procurement uses multiple fair and reasonable price determination methods, including market research, comparison of proposed prices with previous purchases, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industries, and comparison to IGCE (Independent Government Cost Estimate).
