This notice aims to promote and enhance awareness of the Buy American Act (BAA) and its impact on the U.S. economy. During Fiscal Year 2023, DHS executed 1,050 contract actions valued at $67,480,499.71 using the domestic nonavailability exception under the BAA. This represents approximately 1.83 percent of the annual DHS procurement obligations for the fiscal year subject to compliance with the BAA.

These items are considered "spare and replacement parts for equipment of foreign manufacture, and for which domestic parts are not available." The USCG needs these parts to maintain and service aircraft and other assets, and they often have to acquire them from foreign original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). Overall, this notice highlights the use of domestic nonavailability waivers under the BAA in DHS procurement actions, particularly by the USCG for acquiring necessary parts for aircraft and other assets.
