Attachment 2 - Redacted Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition - 70Z03825QJ0000208.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form for the U.S. Coast Guard's procurement of engine starters for MH-60T aircraft. The procurement is for 3 engine starters (Part Number 3505300-10, NSN 2995-01-676-7405) with an option for 2 additional units from Honeywell International, Inc. in Tempe, Arizona (CAGE Code 59364).

The justification cites "Brand Name" as the basis for limited competition, as Honeywell is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) who owns all technical data and specifications. The components are described as complex items that meet critical operational and reliability requirements, with Honeywell being the only approved source by USCG's Aircraft Configuration Control Board. The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through multiple methods including market research, comparison with previous purchases, current price lists, comparison with similar items in related industry, and comparison to IGCE.
