RF Parts Co. is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and as such ensures product integrity for our aircraft specific application and istheonly known source that maintains all proprietary data. Duringmymarket research usingWEBFLlS, GSA, and the lllustrated Parts CataloS, there were no other supply sources identified nor were any alternate parts numbers found. All technical data available to the Coast Guard has been thoroughly researched to ascertain the existence of alternate part numbers;

none were discovered and the items specified by this requirement remain the only suitable components known to ensure safe system operation and functionality of the aircraft.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES

Rt Parts Co. is the OEM for all item(s) listed, the only known supply source, and no other supplies or services will satisfy agency requirements at this time; Authority 6.302-1, citations 10 U.S.C 230a(c)(1). Market research has not identified any alternative part number or supply source.

Parts Co. the OEM, is the sole manufacturer and owns all the proprietary rights.
