This is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) form for purchase request 5034-CB01, Project/Task C144. The document justifies a sole source procurement under 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) for repair services of two elevator components for the HC-144 aircraft: a Left Hand Elevator Equipped (P/N: 35-32000-0007, NSN: 1560-01-HS2-5751) and Right Hand Elevator Equipped (P/N: 35-32001-0008, NSN: 1560-33-001-9887), with quantity of one each.

The justification establishes Airbus as the only source capable of performing these repairs since they are the aircraft OEM and sole holder of the necessary technical data and OEM authorization. The USCG conducted market research through procurement history and aviation subscription services to verify no other sources could meet the requirements. The document notes that while it's not economically feasible for the government to purchase OEM rights or technical data, the USCG continues to explore alternatives through maintenance and repair subscriptions, approved systems, and industry periodicals to identify potential future sources.
