This is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition document for a simplified acquisition under FAR 12.102(a).

The Coast Guard intends to procure repair services on a sole-source basis for 6 EA LIGHT LNDG VIS/IR equipment with part number 50-0324-1 and NSN 6220-01-483-2342. The services involve repair of specified parts for the HC-144 aircraft and require IAW OEM specifications with RFI asset requirements. The justification is based on "Only One Source Reasonably Available" authority, citing urgency and exclusive licensing agreements or industrial mobilization considerations. The suggested source is Grimes Aerospace Company (CAGE Code 72914), located at 550 State Route 55, Urbana, Ohio 43078-9482. The rationale emphasizes that Grimes Aerospace Company is the OEM and owns the rights to technical data, specifications, and drawings required for repairs, making alternate sources or OEM-approved alternatives unavailable. The document identifies Market Research as the contracting officer's fair and reasonable price determination method. The purchase request number is 5343-CD01, and the document was last updated on 12/12/25.
