About this file

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (Sole Source Justification) document from the U.S. Coast Guard for a simplified acquisition of Shakespeare Electronic Products components. The procurement (Request Number 2126406B4200BL004) is justified as a brand name/OEM-only purchase because the equipment consists of proprietary electronic components that are integral to multi-equipment systems already installed on USCG Cutters and Small Boats. The specific items being procured are: 100 units of Part Number HS-2774-1-R (NIIN 01-465-5994), 35 units of Part Number 5225-XT (NIIN 01-524-5154), and 50 units of Part Number US-3849 (NIIN 01-616-0534). The justification cites that attempting to identify replacement equipment would be uneconomical due to the OEM's proprietary integration and connectivity requirements, and lack of available technical data for research and development.

The related solicitation (2126406B4200BL004) issued by the U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center is a Firm Fixed Price contract set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 336611 (business size standard of 1,000 employees). The solicitation is open to all responsible sources, provided they can furnish an OEM-approved authorized distribution letter, as no proprietary manufacturing information or specifications will be provided by the government. Quotations must be received by February 19, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. EST. Item 0001 (ANTENNA, 50 OHM) calls for 100 units with a delivery date of March 6, 2026. All offerors must be registered with the System for Award Management (SAM) and provide their SAM ID and Tax Identification Number.
