This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition for a specific procurement of spare parts. The procurement involves 5 Forward Door Windows (P/N 365-1004-4) for MH-65 helicopters, with an optional quantity of 20. The suggested and sole source is Tech Tool Plastics, Inc. located in Fort Worth, TX, with the unique entity identifier JMTYMRJ5L3N8.

The rationale for single-source procurement indicates that these spare parts are highly specialized, designed and manufactured by a non-Government entity, and the technical data is not available. Tech Tool Plastics is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for the requested part. The procurement will require the distributor to compromise the safety of the aircraft and crew if parts are sourced from alternative vendors, necessitating a direct purchase from the OEM with a Certificate of Conformance in accordance with federal acquisition regulations.
