About this opportunity

The US Coast Guard is seeking to procure overhaul services for two Actuator Cylinder assemblies (Part Number CA93500-0001, NSN 1620-01-HS1-9327) for the HC-144 aircraft through a sole source procurement. This Special Notice constitutes the only solicitation and serves as an intent to award directly to Airbus DS Military Aircraft, Inc., as the government believes they are the only source with access to the required proprietary technical and engineering data. Any vendor other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer or Production Approval Holder must be FAA 145 certified and perform at least 50% of the work at their FAA certified facility, while also being deemed fully capable by Coast Guard Engineers or Equipment Specialists. The overhaul work must be completed in accordance with OEM specifications, including the latest revisions, updates, and service bulletins from Compania Espanola De Sistemas Aeronaticos SA. Vendors have until July 24, 2025 at 4:00 PM EST to submit complete information demonstrating their expertise and capabilities, with only F.O.B. Destination or F.O.B. Origin shipping terms acceptable.

This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and falls under NAICS code 336413 with a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. Airbus DS Military Aircraft, Inc. is identified as the intended sole source contractor, with the government's justification noting that Airbus owns all technical data, specifications, and drawings as the original equipment manufacturer. The contract requires overhaul of exactly two actuator cylinder assemblies with a 260-day turnaround time specified in the Statement of Work. Performance will take place in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, and the contractor must provide detailed teardown and inspection reports within five calendar days of component inspection. The government has determined it would be uneconomical to purchase the technical data rights, making Airbus the only viable source for this specialized aircraft component repair work.
