Attachment III - Redacted Justification and Approval for Other Than Full and Open Competition.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form from the U.S. Coast Guard for purchase request 2024338-GK02. The document justifies a sole-source procurement of 2 stressing fixtures (part number 95-9213-0001) from Airbus DS Military Aircraft, Inc. (CAGE Code: 0DAF1) located in Mobile, AL. The fixtures are used to remove and install nose landing gear when unserviceable or to access other components on aircraft.

The justification cites FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) for "only one source reasonably available" as the authority. The rationale explains that Airbus owns all technical data rights for these specialized items, and it would be uneconomical for the government to purchase these rights or develop technical data for alternate sourcing. The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through comparison with similar items in related industries. No specific pricing or timeline details are provided in this redacted version of the document.
