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

This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a Simplified Acquisition Procedure (SAP) regarding a specialized aircraft part. The Coast Guard intends to purchase two clamp nut adapters (Part Number 35-92000-0201) for nose gear wheel clamp nut installation on the HC144A aircraft, specifically sourcing directly from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) AIRBUS DS MILITARY AIRCRAFT, INC. The acquisition is justified as the items are highly specialized, with Airbus owning all technical data and rights, and it being uneconomical for the government to develop alternative technical data or reverse engineer the component.

The solicitation (Number 70Z03825QE0000062) is an unrestricted requirement with a quotation closing date of 8 July 2025 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time and an anticipated award date of 15 July 2025. The procurement will be a firm-fixed price purchase order awarded on a sole source basis. All parts must be factory new with clear OEM traceability, and vendors must provide a Certificate of Conformance. Quotations are preferred via email to Stacey.M.Riggs@uscg.mil, with the solicitation number indicated in the subject line. The applicable NAICS code is 336413, with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees.
