Redacted J and A - 70Z03826QB0000162.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for commercial products and services at or below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT), issued under FAR 12.102(a) and FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1.

The procurement is for spare parts to be utilized on MH-65 helicopters, specifically eight units of a TROUGH, AFT RH component (NSN 1560-14-417-1618, P/N 366A25-1260-01). The suggested source is Airbus Helicopters INC, located at 2701 Forum Drive, Grand Prairie, TX 75052 (UEI: 3GSZ1). The justification type selected is "Only One Source Is Available," citing the highly specialized nature of the parts, which are designed and manufactured by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Airbus Helicopters France. The rationale states that these spare parts require OEM traceability and certification of conformance per FAR clause 52.246-15, and procurement from other than the OEM or authorized distributors will require all materials to be delivered with clear documented traceability to the OEM. The contracting officer's fair and reasonable price determination method selected is "Current Price List."
