    ATTACHMENT 2 - REDACTED J AND A - 70Z03825QJ0000037.pdf
    The document outlines a justification for a sole source procurement undertaken by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) for an essential component used in the MH-60T aircraft. The contracting officer cites 41 U.S.C. 3204(a)(1) and FAR 13.106-1(b)(1) as the statutory basis for limiting competition. The item, a man troop seat (NSN 1680-01-HS1-0128), is uniquely manufactured by ORO Manufacturing Co, which retains all rights to the technical data necessary for production. Due to the specialized nature of this item, coupled with significant costs associated with acquiring technical rights from the OEM, the USCG determined that no alternative suppliers could meet the strict operational and reliability requirements. Extensive market research revealed no other potential sources, further solidifying the decision for a sole source acquisition. The document emphasizes that overcoming barriers to competition is challenging because the government does not hold the proprietary data required to describe the product adequately for alternative manufacturing. Consequently, the USCG's actions reflect a commitment to maintaining the integrity and reliability of aviation components while navigating the complexities of federal procurement regulations.
