Attachment 2- Redacted JA.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard justification document for restricting competition on a commercial products procurement under FAR 12.102(a). The Purchase Request Number is 6139-CB01, and the contracting authority cites FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12.

The procurement involves HC-144 aircraft parts, specifically initial procurement of brushes (EA RING, RETAINING), retaining rings, and 5 EA SEAL parts with multiple part numbers and NSN designations. These items will be placed in ALC Ready-For-Issue Inventory for future requirements and installation on USCG aircraft. The sole source is General Electric Co (GE), located at 1000 Western Avenue, Lynn, MA (CAGE Code 99207). The justification for the single source award cites that GE is the original equipment manufacturer and these proprietary procedures and data are protected under GE's Proprietary Claim Certificate File. GE owns the exclusive rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture the parts, and they are procurable only from GE or GE-approved distributors. The contracting officer employed market research as the fair and reasonable price determination method. The document was last updated on March 3, 2026.
