About this opportunity
The United States Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center is procuring one HH-65C Engine Stand (NSN 1730-01-HS2-4099, Part Number RW-CG-SSCS-MH65-A) through a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items. The procurement is being conducted as a sole source acquisition under FAR 6.302-1(a)(1), with the Coast Guard planning to negotiate exclusively with SAFE Structure Designs LLC (CAGE Code 7LQA9) as the only known supplier and Original Equipment Manufacturer. All offered items must be new approved parts with clear traceability documentation back to the OEM, and contractors must provide a Certificate of Conformance in accordance with FAR clause 52.246-15. The contract will be awarded to the lowest priced, technically acceptable offeror, with technical acceptability evaluated on the ability to provide the exact brand-name item from the specified OEM with no substitutions allowed. The solicitation was posted on September 9, 2025, with quotations due by September 12, 2025.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and is open to all responsible sources, though SAFE Structure Designs LLC is identified as the intended sole source contractor. While the Schedule of Supplies shows a placeholder unit price of $0.00, the final award value will be determined through the quotation process for this single engine stand unit. The contractor must deliver the equipment within 160 days after receipt of order on an F.O.B. destination basis. Performance will take place in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, where the Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center is located. The justification for sole source procurement is based on the highly specialized nature of the equipment, with all technical rights owned by SAFE Structure Designs, making it uneconomical for the government to purchase technical data rights or develop independent specifications.
