This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (J&A) form using Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 13.106-1(b) for purchase request 2024310-CD05, Project/Task C144. The document justifies a sole-source procurement from Telephonics (CAGE Code 64694) for the repair of Signal Processor parts (P/N: 737-3000-003, NSN: 5841-01-HS3-1534) for the U.S. Coast Guard.

The justification cites authority under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1), indicating only one responsible source can satisfy agency requirements. Telephonics is identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) with exclusive technical data rights and engineering specifications needed for the repairs. The USCG conducted market research through aviation subscription services and determined no other sources possess the necessary technical data and capability to perform the required repairs. The document, dated March 8, 2023, explains that purchasing OEM rights would be uneconomical, and the agency continues to monitor potential future competition through maintenance databases, trade shows, and industry conferences.
