    The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) is seeking to purchase two FLOOR PNL 23EF MOD parts (NSN: 1560-01-HS3-7691, P/N: 984709) for HC-144 aircraft through a sole-source acquisition, citing 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1). These parts are critical for Product Depot Maintenance due to corrosion or damage. Aerospace Quality R&D Inc. (CAGE Code: 7QJS7) is the sole Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and holds all rights to the necessary technical data, specifications, and drawings. The government does not own these rights, and it is uneconomical to purchase them, making the OEM or an OEM-approved distributor the only viable source. Market research using past procurement history and the Inventory Locator Service (ILS®) confirmed no other sources meet the criteria for data possession, capability, and turnaround time. The USCG will continue to explore alternative options for future acquisitions, but currently, competition is not economically feasible due to intellectual property restrictions and operational safety requirements.
