This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 12.102(a).

The procurement request number is 6037-NB02. The Coast Guard is justifying a sole-source acquisition under FAR 12.102(a) based on "Only One Source Reasonably Available" due to urgency, exclusive licensing agreements, or industrial mobilization. The requested supplies consist of aircraft parts on a sole-source basis: 2 EA Harness Assembly, APU, part number 4504107, NSN 5995-01-522-5020, and Air Life Cycle (ALC) assets required for the HC-27J aircraft. The suggested source is RTX Corporation (CAGE code 52661), located at 400 Main Street, East Hartford, Connecticut 06118, with UEI CN1BCFY7JDJ5.

The rationale for the sole-source justification centers on RTX Corporation being the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) that owns the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture the parts. The items are unique to the HC-27J aircraft and its operations, with the U.S. Coast Guard lacking authority to use alternative systems. The Government does not possess the technical data required for manufacturing and has no plans to develop it. The procurement officer used market research as the fair and reasonable price determination method to establish pricing.
