About this opportunity
The Department of Homeland Security's US Coast Guard is seeking to procure two Nose Landing Gear components for the MH-65 Aircraft through a sole source solicitation. The contract opportunity (Solicitation No. 70Z03825QB0000009) is specifically targeting newly manufactured commercial parts from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Safran Landing Systems. Strict qualification requirements mandate that all parts must have clear traceability to the OEM and be approved in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) guidelines to ensure aircrew safety. Contractors must provide a Certificate of Airworthiness and submit quotes by December 6, 2024, at 2:30 pm EST via email to Charles.B.Colson2@uscg.mil. The evaluation will prioritize best value to the government without compromising quality or flight safety, with no alternate or substitute parts being considered.
The solicitation carries no specific small business set-aside, though the NAICS code 336413 has a small business size standard of 1,250 employees. The anticipated contract is expected to be awarded to Airbus Helicopters, Inc. as the sole authorized North American distributor for Safran Landing Systems, with an estimated contract value of $435,852. The procurement is classified under Product Service Code 1620 for Aircraft Landing Gear Components and will be executed as a firm-fixed price contract. No specific place of performance is detailed in the documents, though the procurement is being managed by the US Coast Guard Aviation Logistics Center. The contract will involve procuring a maximum of two units of the specialized nose landing gear, with all parts being newly manufactured and meeting stringent airworthiness standards.
