About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard Long Range Enforcer Product Line issued a Limited/Sole Source Justification Notice on June 16, 2025, for the procurement of two Double Inflatable MX-9 Stern Tube Shaft Seal Assemblies for the USCGC HEALY (WAGB-420) propulsion shaft. The specialized inflatable shaft seals are critical for the vessel's operational readiness and waterborne inspection and maintenance of the propulsion shaft, with delivery required by December 2025 to support Fiscal Year 2026 maintenance operations. The sole source justification was based on the fact that only one vendor possesses the necessary proprietary technical data and manufacturing capabilities to produce these specialized seals, despite three responses to a Sources Sought Notice. The Coast Guard emphasized that without these specific seals, the vessel could experience catastrophic failure or mission delays, and no other third-party vendors can effectively manufacture the parts without access to the original manufacturing specifications. Contract 70Z08525CLREP0002 was awarded on June 16, 2025, though the vendor name and contract value were not disclosed in the available documentation. The procurement is funded through Operations and Support funds for Fiscal Year 2025 under a Firm Fixed-Price contract structure.
