    Redacted JA.pdf
    The document outlines the justification for a sole-source procurement under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for the repair of elevator equipment and aileron assemblies for HC-144 aircraft, citing 10 U.S.C. § 3204(a)(1) due to the unavailability of other responsible sources. The items are unique to the aircraft, and the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Airbus, owns all proprietary rights to the technical data, making it uneconomical for the government to acquire these rights or for other sources to manufacture the parts. Efforts to find other sources, including market research through past procurement history and the Inventory Locator Service (ILS®), require traceability to the OEM, documentation of new material condition, and adherence to delivery dates. The government cannot change the service requirement due to operational safety and flight-critical needs directed by the OEM. Future actions to overcome competition barriers include continued market research and attendance at aviation trade shows to explore alternative procurement options.
    Solicitation Terms and Conditions.pdf
    This government solicitation (70Z03826QL0000039) outlines the terms and conditions for acquiring commercial items, primarily focusing on the repair and overhaul of USCG aircraft components. Key requirements for offerors include submitting signed offers with specific identifying information, accepting terms, and adhering to a 60-day price validity period. Technical acceptability demands current FAA, OEM, or Air Force certification, with repairs following OEM manuals. Offers are evaluated on technical acceptability and price, with award going to the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offeror. The solicitation also details strict quality assurance, packaging, shipping, inspection, and invoicing instructions. Furthermore, it incorporates numerous FAR and HSAR clauses, with significant emphasis on prohibitions against certain telecommunications equipment, products from specific foreign entities (e.g., Huawei, ZTE, Kaspersky Lab), and restrictions on business operations in countries like Sudan and Iran.
    SOW.pdf
    The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) requires repair services for HC-144 aircraft flight control surfaces, specifically the LH Elevator (P/N 35-32000-0007) and LH Aileron (P/N 35-14003-0002). These components frequently suffer from corrosion and fatigue damage, which the USCG cannot repair in-house. This Statement of Work (SOW) establishes a contract with ADSMA, an OEM repair facility in Mobile, AL, to inspect, repair, and restore these parts to airworthy condition. ADSMA will be responsible for providing facilities, manpower, tooling, materials, and adhering to specific repair manuals and service bulletins. The scope includes comprehensive inspections, corrosion control, application of primer protections, and documentation of all work, including bonding jumper tests and mid-life inspections. ADSMA must submit detailed proposals outlining costs, completion times, repair processes, and hardware requirements. All work must be documented via FAA 8130-3 or Certificate of Conformance.
