This is a Special Notice and a Notice of Intent to Award, not a request for competitive proposals.

The USCG ALC, Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Procurement Division, requires 10 "Door AY" units for replacement on MH-60T aircraft due to routine maintenance, failures, corrosion, or damage. The intent is to solicit and negotiate with only one source, the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) – Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (Cage Code 78286), under Basic Ordering Agreement SPE4A1-22-G-0005.

Sole Source Rationale
A Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) (Attachment 2) explains that Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation holds proprietary rights to the technical data and specifications for this complex item. Procuring from other than the OEM would compromise aircraft safety. The item is assigned an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating acquisition only from the actual manufacturer. Fair and reasonable pricing will be determined through market research and comparison to the Independent Government Cost Estimate (IGCE).
