This is a U.S. Coast Guard justification document for a sole source procurement under FAR 12.102(a), FAR Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1. The contracting action, identified as Purchase Request/Requisition Number 6229-ND05, seeks to procure FQIS EXT Panel Fuel components (Part Number 747946-1-1, NSN 6610-14-543-6786, Quantity 1 each) on a sole source basis from Leonardo SPA (A1512), located in Piazza Monte Grappa 4 Roma, 00195, with UEI W8PTMRME1496.

The justification cites "Only One Source Is Available" as the authority, based on exclusive licensing agreements and industrial mobilization requirements. The items are for repair and evaluation under Product Depot Maintenance (PDM) due to corrosion and/or damage. The rationale emphasizes that these components are uniquely designed for specific aircraft and must comply with Aircraft Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) requirements and U.S. Coast Guard authorized engineering authority specifications. The original equipment manufacturer, Leonardo SPA, holds all technical rights, specifications, and drawings necessary for repair, and it has been determined uneconomical to purchase from other sources. The contracting officer selected market research and comparison of proposed prices with prices found reasonable on previous purchases as the fair and reasonable price determination methods.
