UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LII\4IT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY LIMITED SOURCES, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER

SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE USED,

Air lndustries lvlachine lncand Sikorsky Corporation arethe actual manufacturer for these parts. They ensure product integrity for our aircraft specific application, and are the only known sources that hold all the proprietary data. During my markel research using WEBFLIS, GSA Advantage, and/or open market sources, lhere were no other supply sources identitied. Alltechnical data available has been thoroughly researched to ascertain the existence of alternate part numbers; none were discovered. The items specified bythis requirement remain the only suilable componenls known to ensure safe system operation and functionality of the aircraft.

A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS IilADE TO ENSURE THAT OUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROIil AS MANY POTENTIAL SOURCES

AS PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE)

During the lvlarket Research phase utilizing AMMIS, FEDLOG, and GSA Advantage there were no additional sources identilled.

Solicitation may be posted on FEDBIZOPPS but acquisition method code (3) indicates acquire directly from the actual manufacturer.

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

Market research has not identified any alternative part number or supply source. Air lndustries and Sikorsky are the actual manufacturers for the item(s) listed, owns the procurement rights, and the only known supply sources.

EXPLAIN WHY AN ADEOUATE PURCHASE DESCRIPTION OR OTHER INFORMATION SUITABLE TO SOLICIT BY FULL AND OPEN

COMPETITION HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE

Technical data packages, specilications, and documentation necessary lo enable full and open competition were not procured by the

USCG,

PROVIDE A STATEMENT OF ACTIONS, IF ANY. THE GOVERNMENT MAY TAKE TO REIUOVE OR OVERCOME ANY BARRIERS TO

COMPETITION EEFORE FUTURE ACOUISITIONS ARE REOUIRED.

The Coast Guard does not have the required data or drawings lo overcome the limited source barrier to foster competition. lt would not be cost effective to acquire the data for open competition sinc€ Air lndustries and Sikorsky are the only approved sources and own all the proprietary nghts.
