BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF SUPPLIES OR SERVICES REQUIRED, AND THE INTENDED USE.

Initial procurement to repair 1 EA BOX, ECU P/N 258600-102 NSN 1680-01-551-9704 for C27J aircraft parts. Item(s) will be placed in

ALC Ready-For-Issue Inventory for future issue and installation on a USCG Aircraft.

UNIQUE CHARACTERISTICS THAT LIMIT AVAILABILITY TO ONLY ONE SOURCE, WITH THE REASON NO OTHER SUPPLIES OR SERVICES CAN BE

USED. These items (to include its Form, Fit, and Function) are unique to a specific aircraft, and any installation, operation, or servicing must comply with the Aircraft OEM requirements and/or the U. S. Coast Guard’s authorized engineering authority for this particular airframe. As the original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) of this item, MOOG INC, AIRCRAFT GROUP (CAGE code 0ZWK8) owns all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture these items. The rights to the technical data necessary in order to purchase these items from other than the OEM or an OEM approved source are not owned by the Government, and it has been determined that it is uneconomical to purchase these rights.

A DESCRIPTION OF EFFORTS MADE TO ENSURE THAT QUOTATIONS OR OFFERS ARE SOLICITED FROM AS MANY POTENTIAL SOURCES AS

PRACTICABLE (INCLUDE YOUR MARKET RESEARCH EFFORTS HERE). USCG uses past procurement history and the international aviation subscription service (Inventory Locator Service or ILS®), to seek available sources of supply. All potential sources must provide (1) traceability to the OEM for each part identified in this procurement, (2) documentation to support material condition as NEW, and (3) can meet the required Delivery Date.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES. This service is procurable from the OEM, MOOG INC, AIRCRAFT GROUP (CAGE Code 0ZWK8). Procedures and data are protected under the proprietary rights of the OEM (Proprietary Claim Certificate File). The OEM owns the rights to the technical data, specifications and drawings required to manufacture the parts. These parts are procurable only from the OEM or any distributor approved by the OEM.

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

HAS NOT BEEN DEVELOPED OR ARE NOT AVAILABLE. Due to Operational Safety and/or flight critical requirements, the USCG cannot legally change the service requirement for this item as it is directed by the OEM and/or the OEM’s manager of such data. Therefore, procurement processes are dictated by the OEM or an approved source of the OEM. The government does not own or possess any rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture these parts. In addition, the government has not developed the technical data required to manufacture these parts and has no plans to do so.

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

BEFORE FUTURE ACQUISITIONS ARE REQUIRED. Although the government has not been willing to bear the cost of procurement of the necessary OEM data for this service, USCG ALC MRS still continues to check procurement-based subscription services, alternate approved systems, and industry periodicals, and also sends representatives to various aviation trade shows and conferences to seek out all possible legally achieved procurement options and sources.
