The U.S. Coast Guard issued a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition to procure specialized spare parts for MH-65 helicopters. This procurement, falling under Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) for FAR 12.102(a), is justified due to only one source being reasonably available. The required parts, specifically Hydraulic Motors (NIIN 01-024-5260, P/N MF1-009-12), are highly specialized and manufactured by Eaton Aerospace, LLC. Sherwood Avionics and Accessories, Inc. is identified as the suggested source and an authorized distributor. The rationale states that technical data is not available for acquisition from sources other than the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or an authorized distributor. Procuring parts from unauthorized sources would compromise aircraft and crew safety. All delivered materials must have clear, documented traceability to the OEM and a Certificate of Conformance, as per FAR clause 52.246-15. The estimated total value is over the micro-purchase threshold but up to the SAT.
This document is a Request for Quote (RFQ) for the repair and potential test and evaluation of hydraulic motors (NSN: 1650-01-024-5260, Part Number: MF1-009-12). The RFQ requires vendors to provide pricing for repairs, including a Test and Evaluation (T/E) fee, and specifies that if an item is deemed Beyond Economical Repair (BER), the contractor must quote a T/E fee and any additional charges to return the item. The U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) will not pay a scrap fee. The RFQ also references FAR 52.217-6, Option for Increased Quantity, asking vendors to agree or propose modifications. Vendors must complete yellow highlighted sections and contact information is provided for questions.
This Statement of Work outlines requirements for contractors to repair hydraulic motors used on United States Coast Guard (USCG) MH-65 helicopters. Contractors must perform test and evaluation, repair non-Ready for Installation (RFI) components to Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) specifications, and provide all necessary resources. Repairs must adhere to current CMMs and approved deviations. Corrosion is anticipated and requires thorough inspection and treatment. Components with misuse, cannibalization, or severe damage, or those deemed Beyond Economical Repair (BER), require specific authorization from the Contracting Officer (KO). The contractor must submit failure data reports for each repaired component and maintain ISO 9001, AS9100, or equivalent quality certifications, along with FAA or EASA Part 145 certification. All repaired parts must be airworthy, tagged with a DD Form 1574 or FAA Form 8130-3, and include a Certificate of Airworthiness and a Certificate of Conformance. Delivery for repairs is 30 days, and test/evaluation is 15 days. Contractors must also provide Component Repair Records for tracked components.
