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 Rev. 1.

The procurement involves a single spare part for MH-65 helicopters: one Servo, Tail Rotor (NIIN 14-404-9798, P/N 704A44-831-120). The contracting officer is seeking a single source justification based on the determination that only one source is available. The suggested source is Airbus Helicopters, Inc., located at 2701 N. Forum Drive, Grand Prairie, TX 75052 (UEI: LAD2HL1R71Z3). The justification cites that this spare part is a highly specialized, safety-critical flight component designed and manufactured as non-Government activity. Technical data required for acquisition is available only from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Goodrich Actuation Systems (F1688), making Airbus Helicopters the authorized OEM supplier. The document notes that procurement from other sources or unauthorized suppliers would compromise aircraft and crew safety. All materials delivered must be traceable to the OEM and include OEM certification of conformance and a Certificate of Conformance per FAR clause 52.246-15. The contracting officer's fair and reasonable price determination methods are not indicated as selected in the document.
