This document is a Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) Justification form for a sole source procurement by the U.S. Coast Guard. The procurement involves acquiring 4 EA ACTUATOR-BALLSCRW P/N 67700105 NSN 1680-99-767-8851 for HC-144 aircraft parts, which will be placed in the ALC Ready-For-Issue Inventory for future issue and installation on a USCG aircraft.

The justification emphasizes unique characteristics limiting availability to only one source, specifically the original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) with CAGE CODE K0654-K0648). The procurement is driven by the need to comply with Aircraft OEM requirements and U.S. Coast Guard engineering standards. The USCG has determined that no alternative sources can meet the specific technical requirements, and purchasing these items from the OEM or an OEM-approved source is the most economical approach. The document includes detailed explanations of why this is a sole source procurement, including the OEM's exclusive ownership of technical data, specifications, and manufacturing rights for these specific aircraft parts.
