The United States Coast Guard (USCG), Aviation Logistics Center (ALC), Short Range Recovery (SRR) Division has a requirement to purchase spare parts on a sole source basis utilized on the MH-65 helicopter.

NIIN P/N Nomenclature Qty Opt Qty

013878814 R2105CD-10 FITTING 250 250

Requesting an optional quantity up to 365 calendar days from date of award.

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

OR SERVICES CAN BE USED.

This acquisition is restricted to the only source of supply known to have the capability of furnishing the required supplies. The USCG has determined that these parts can only be acquired from Parker Hannifin Corp. Furthermore, the Government does not have adequate data or lacks rights to data, and it is not economical to buy the data or rights to the data.

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).

The spare parts to be procured under this acquisition are highly specialized parts, designed and manufactured by a non-Government activity and the technical data required for acquisition by other than the OEM is not available. Parker Hannifin Corp. (50599) is the OEM for the requested part.

Therefore, procurement of any parts from other than the OEM or a SRR Engineering approved source will compromise the safety of the aircraft and the crew. The solicitation and resulting purchase order will require all materials delivered to have clear, documented traceability to the OEM and a completed Certificate of Conformance, certifying compliance with this contract condition, in accordance with FAR clause 52.246-15, Certificate of Conformance, which will be incorporated.

REASON THAT SUGGESTED SOURCE IS THE ONLY SOURCE WHICH CAN PROVIDE THE SUPPLIES OR SERVICES.

These parts are proprietary to the OEM, Parker Hannifin Corporation, and maintenance procedures were written specifically to interact with these parts. Based upon the technical certification on file, technical data is not available and cannot be developed to permit full and open competition.
