This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 12.102(a).

The Coast Guard seeks to procure spare parts for MH-65 helicopters through a single-source acquisition from Airbus Helicopters, Inc. (3GSZ1), located at 2701 N. Forum Drive, Grand Prairie, TX 75052-7099 (UEI: LAD2HL1R71Z3). The required item is a Cowling Engine, Left (Part Number 365A58-1740-0101, NSN 1560-01-HS1-6811), with a quantity of 2 units and an optional quantity of 5 units. The justification cites FAR 12.102(a), asserting that only one source is reasonably available due to the specialized nature of the parts. The rationale emphasizes that these are highly specialized components designed and manufactured exclusively by Airbus Helicopters France (F0210), the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The Coast Guard contends that procurement from any non-OEM source or unauthorized distributor would compromise aircraft safety and crew integrity. The acquisition requires all materials to have documented traceability to the OEM and include a Certificate of Conformance per FAR clause 52.246-15.
