This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition 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.

The procurement is for eight (8) units of a fixed arm hoist (Part Number 366A84-0250-02, NSN 143938967) to be utilized as spare parts on MH-65 helicopters. The suggested source is Advantage Aviation Technologies, LLC, located at 1300 McDuff Avenue, Grandview, Texas 76050 (UEI: UY12C9ENATM6). The justification selects "Only One Source Is Available" as the restriction type, citing that the spare parts are highly specialized components designed and manufactured by a non-Government entity, with technical data available only from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). Airbus Helicopters France (6A6S2) is identified as the sole known vendor capable of repairing these assets to Ready-For-Issue (RFI) condition. The solicitation will require all delivered materials to have clear, documented traceability to the OEM and include a completed Certificate of Conformance verifying compliance with FAR clause 52.246-15.
