    The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) is seeking to procure specialized items necessary for the MH60T helicopter through a sole source acquisition from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation. The justification for this approach falls under 41 U.S.C. 1901(c) and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), as Sikorsky is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and owns all relevant technical data and specifications. Extensive market research was conducted, showing no available alternatives that meet critical operational requirements. The items required are complex and have specific manufacturing and testing needs, making it economically unviable for the government to develop alternative manufacturing rights. A Notice of Intent will be published on SAM.gov to inform potential bidders. However, the proprietary nature of the technical data restricts competition, and efforts to eliminate these barriers are limited as the USCG cannot provide comprehensive descriptions for alternative sourcing. This acquisition underscores the reliance on OEM-provided components for operational integrity and compliance with USCG standards.
