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

The procurement seeks eight electro valve spare parts for MH-65 helicopters. The specific part is identified as NTIN 14-539-4604, P/N 121FS29147, with an optional quantity field also listed. The suggested source is Airbus Inc./Helicopters located at 2701 N. Forum Drive, Grand Prairie, TX 75052-7099 (UEI: LAD2HL1R71Z3). The justification for the single-source procurement is based on FAR 12.102(a) – "Only One Source Reasonably Available" – citing urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, or industrial mobilization concerns. The rationale explains that these are highly specialized parts designed and manufactured by a non-government entity and are technically data-restricted for acquisition only through the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Lucifer SA (S3700) is identified as the OEM, and procurement from any other source would compromise aircraft and crew safety. The solicitation will require all delivered materials to have documented traceability to the OEM and include a Certificate of Conformance certifying compliance with contract conditions per FAR clause 52.246-15. Page two contains a section for contracting officer fair and reasonable price determination methods, with checkboxes for market research, comparison of proposed price with previous purchases, current price lists, comparison with similar items, comparison to IGCE, contracting officer's personal knowledge, or other methods, though no selections are marked in this document.
