    Title
    Posted
    Attachment A - Terms and Conditions.pdf
    The solicitation 70Z03826QW0000013 outlines the terms and conditions for DHS acquisition of commercial items, including instructions for offerors and evaluation criteria. Offers must include the solicitation number, offeror details, UEI, evaluation information, representations, certifications, and a statement of agreement with terms. Offers are held firm for 60 days. Late submissions may not be considered, but favorable modifications may be. Contract award will generally be made without discussions, with the government reserving the right to reject offers. Evaluation will prioritize the lowest priced, technically acceptable offer, with technical acceptability based on the ability to provide new manufactured commercial items and a Certificate of Conformance. The document also details quality assurance, packaging, shipping to USCG Aviation Logistics Center, inspection, acceptance, and invoicing instructions, including a “Fast Pay” procedure. Furthermore, it incorporates various FAR and HSAR clauses by reference, addressing topics such as security prohibitions, exclusions, and restrictions related to specific foreign entities and technologies like covered telecommunications equipment, Kaspersky Lab products, and FASC-prohibited unmanned aircraft systems. Contractors must conduct reasonable inquiries and report non-compliance or new FASCSA orders.
    Attachment B - Redacted Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition.pdf
    The document, a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition, outlines the rationale for a sole-source procurement by the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) for specific aircraft parts (Satcom HPA Mount, Panel Illuminated, Drain Cock, Pitot Tube) used on the C27J aircraft. These parts are critical for operational safety and flight-critical requirements, replaced due to corrosion or damage during inspections. The justification states that Homberger SPA, Secondo Mono SPA, Leonardo SPA Airbone, and Thales AVS are the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and hold exclusive rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings. The government does not own these rights, and purchasing them is deemed uneconomical. Market research, including past procurement history and the Inventory Locator Service (ILS®), confirmed that only OEMs or OEM-approved distributors, such as Leonardo SPA, can provide these parts while meeting capability and turnaround time requirements. The USCG actively seeks alternative sources but has determined it is not economically feasible to overcome the current barriers to competition.
