This is a U.S. Coast Guard justification document for restricting competition on two purchase requests (6112-CH01 and 6113-CH02) for commercial products and services below the Simplified Acquisition Threshold (SAT), submitted under FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1.

The Coast Guard's Aviation Logistics Center (ALC), through the Medium Range Surveillance (MRS) Product Line, is procuring replacement HC-144 aircraft parts from a single source due to exclusivity of the OEM. The required items include a cover (NSN: 1850-01-HS2-0128, P/N: CAN681-2-01FA, Qty: 23 ea.), a profile (NSN: 1680-01-HS3-8049, Qty: 3 ea.), and a decal (NSN: 1680-01-HS3-7856, P/N: 35-65010-0403, Qty: 4 ea.). These parts are used on HC-144 aircraft and are being replaced during product depot maintenance (PDM) to prevent corrosion and damages. The justification cites "Only One Source Is Available" as the rationale, specifying that Airbus Defense and Space SAU (CAGE Code: 01178) is the OEM and sole owner of technical data and specifications required to manufacture the parts. The suggested source is Airbus Military Aircraft, Inc., 8100 Airbus Military Drive, Mobile, Alabama, 36608-5031 (CAGE Code: DDAF1), an approved OEM distributor. The contracting officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through market research.
