Redacted Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition - 70Z03826QH0000035.pdf

This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition form for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 13.106-1(b). The justification supports a single-source, non-competitive procurement of Aircraft Power Contractor components for HC130 aircraft.

The procurement involves ten Aircraft Power Contractor P/N 1616045-5 units plus five optional units. The contracting officer selected a Brand Name justification type, citing that the particular component is essential to government requirements and that market research indicates no other manufacturers' products or substitute features can meet agency needs. The suggested source is TE Connectivity Corporation, located at 175 North Diamond Street, Mansfield, Ohio 44902, identified as the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) with Cage 74063. TE Connectivity owns the technical data, manuals, specifications, and drawings required to manufacture the component, and USCG Engineering has determined there is no fit, fit, and function substitute available. The contracting officer selected "Comparison with Similar Items in a Related Industry" as the fair and reasonable price determination method. The form was last updated on November 1, 2024.
