The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) seeks to justify the award of a sole source contract for the repair and major repair of Nose, Left-Hand, and Right-Hand Main Landing Gear for the MH-65E aircraft through Aero Precision Repair & Overhaul Co., Inc. This decision is in accordance with 10 U.S.C. § 3204 due to Aero Precision being the only FAA-approved maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) facility in North America as designated by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Safran Landing Systems. The contract, estimated at $27,510,468 over five years, is crucial to maintain fleet readiness for 98 MH-65E aircraft engaged in diverse missions including search and rescue, law enforcement, and marine protection. The justification outlines the rigorous market research efforts that confirmed Aero Precision's unique qualifications, as no alternate sources could ensure compliance with safety and technical standards necessary for the repairs. The document emphasizes the impact on USCG operations if this sole source procurement is not approved, citing potential grounding of aircraft due to unavailability of necessary components. The contracting officer and technical personnel certify the importance and accuracy of this necessity, reinforcing compliance with competition regulations while prioritizing safety and mission efficacy.
