    Attachment 2 - Redacted J and A - 70Z03824QJ0000382.pdf
    The United States Coast Guard (USCG) Aviation Logistics Center intends to procure specialized parts for the MH-60T aircraft on a sole source basis from Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation. This justification for limiting competition cites the company's ownership of essential technical data, specifications, and drawings necessary for manufacturing the requested items, which includes seals, panels, and components designated under specific National Stock Numbers (NSNs). The procurement aligns with statutory authority 41 U.S.C. 1901(c) and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), wherein only one source is determined to be reasonably available due to the unique characteristics of the parts. Extensive market research was conducted to explore other options, but it revealed that no other suppliers could meet the critical operational and reliability standards established by USCG’s Aircraft Configuration Control Board. The document outlines that the USCG lacks the rights to develop a suitable purchase description for open competition, underscoring the barriers to competition caused by proprietary manufacturing data held by the OEM. Future actions to enhance competition are limited due to these constraints. This acquisition plan highlights the challenges faced by government entities in sourcing specialized equipment while maintaining operational integrity and compliance.
