This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form, used to support a sole-source procurement decision under FAR 12.102(a) and FAR Part 12 regulations.

The Coast Guard intends to purchase aircraft parts on a sole-source basis from Leonardo SPA (UEI: A1512), located in Roma, Italy. The specific items include a Mount Satcom HPA (P/N: SS132F01, NSN: 1680-01-HS3-4027, Qty 1 ea) and Module (P/N: JN1020H01, NSN: 5961-12-353-0683, Qty 4 ea), which are used on C27J aircraft and replaced during inspection due to corrosion or damage. The justification type selected is "Only One Source Is Available," citing that these parts are unique to the specific aircraft and its installations, with no operational equivalents meeting requirements. The rationale emphasizes that Leonardo SPA (A1307) and EuroFighter Jagdflieger GmbH (C7503) are the OEMs and hold all rights to technical data and specifications. The document notes that Leonardo SPA is the OEM-approved distributor and that alternative sources lack government ownership of technical data. For fair and reasonable price determination, the contracting officer selected market research and comparison of proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases as the evaluation methods.
