About this opportunity
The United States Coast Guard is soliciting quotations on a sole-source basis for two spare-part items for MH-60T aircraft, an ELT Antenna (NSN 5985-01-HS2-1724, P/N 10-102-33) and an ELT 503-7 (NSN 1560-01-HS1-9687, P/N 15-503-158), with quotations due November 19, 2026. The notice is an unrestricted requirement with no set-aside used, and it anticipates a firm-fixed-price purchase order to SpecMat Technologies, Inc.
The Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition, citing FAR 12.102(a) and Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1, states that HR Smith (Techtest Ltd.), the original equipment manufacturer, owns all required technical data and specifications. It identifies SpecMat as the only U.S. distributor and the sole source approved by the Aircraft Configuration Control Board for these items. The Government determined that purchasing these complex, mission-critical items from alternative sources is uneconomical.
Each item carries a base quantity of four each and an optional quantity of four each. Under FAR 52.217-6, the Coast Guard may order up to a maximum of eight of each item at the same price and lead time within 365 days after initial award. The requested delivery date is January 7, 2027. Per the Terms and Conditions attachment, delivery is F.O.B. Destination to the Aviation Logistics Center in Elizabeth City, North Carolina.
A Certificate of Conformance under FAR 52.246-15 is required for all items. A quality assurance addendum applies to orders for products touching USCG aircraft and requires immediate notice of supply changes, defects, counterfeit parts, or non-conformities. Contracting Officer approval is required before disposing of non-conforming products. Requirements flow down to subcontractors and suppliers, and invoicing requires active SAM registration.
Award will be based on a fair and reasonable pricing determination, supported by market research, comparison with previous purchase prices and current price lists, and comparison to the IGCE. The attachments reference Solicitation 70Z03827QJ0000024, which differs from the notice number 70Z03826QJ0000024.
