    The Department of Homeland Security's United States Coast Guard (USCG) seeks to issue a sole-source delivery order to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (SAC) for essential parts for the MH-60T aircraft's Tail Cone/Tail Pylon. This action is justified under 41 U.S.C. § 1901(c)(1), allowing for other than full and open competition due to the proprietary nature of SAC's data and the lack of alternative sources. The procurement will utilize Fiscal Year 2024 Procurement, Construction, and Improvements funds. The USCG conducted market research confirming that SAC is the only qualified Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) for these components, as all necessary specifications and tooling are proprietary to SAC. The urgency of acquiring these critical parts is underscored by their impact on USCG operations, including search and rescue and law enforcement missions. A formal notice will be posted on SAM.gov, and no alternative suppliers were identified during market research. This justification aims to ensure that the necessary components are procured promptly to maintain operational readiness while highlighting ongoing efforts to improve competition in future procurements.
