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

The Coast Guard seeks to procure repair services on a sole source basis for five inertial EMB GPS units (part number 34209700-5N7A, NSN: 1680-01-HS1-9523) under purchase request 6041-CD04. The services will be performed by Honeywell International Inc. (UEI LXR8CJQ8JU7), located at 13350 US Highway 19 North, Clearwater, Florida 33764-7226. The justification cites FAR 12.102(a)—Only One Source Reasonably Available—as the authority, explaining that Honeywell is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and sole owner of the technical data, specifications, and drawings required to repair these aircraft-specific components. The units must be repaired in accordance with OEM specifications, and ALC requires RFI assets for HC-144 aircraft. The contracting officer selected market research as the fair and reasonable price determination method. The document notes that items to be repaired under this acquisition are unique to the specific aircraft, and any installation, operation, or servicing must comply with OEM requirements and the USCG's authorized engineering authority. USCG will continue to check maintenance and repair web-based subscription services, alternate approved systems, and industry periodicals to pursue all possible legally achieved purchase and service options.
