redacted J A 5028-CD01.pdf

This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form documenting the sole source procurement of aircraft parts for the US Coast Guard. The procurement is for Side Bracket (P/N: LM320SA12, NSN: 5340-01-308-9922, Qty: 8) and Bolts (P/N: D56889, NSN:3-2612, Qty: 6) used on the HC-144 aircraft, with purchase request number 5028-CD01.

The justification cites that Airbus (Cage Code: 0DAF1) is the aircraft OEM and sole source capable of providing these parts, as they own all rights to the technical data and manufacturing specifications. The USCG conducted market research through procurement history and aviation subscription services to verify no other sources could provide the parts. The document indicates it is not economically feasible for the government to purchase OEM rights or develop technical data for manufacturing. The contracting activity is C144, and the document is dated January 28, 2025.
