This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for Simplified Acquisition Procedures (SAP) under FAR 12.102(a). It details the rationale for procuring specific aircraft parts from a single source.

• Authority: FAR 12.102(a) and FAR 5.201(c)(3), FAR 11.204.
• Justification Type: Only one source is reasonably available, specifically due to the item being peculiar to one manufacturer (brand name).
• Required Items: The Aviation Logistics Center (ALC) and Medium Range Recovery (MRR) Product Line require specific gaskets and a lamp for the MH-60T aircraft. These are for routine maintenance due to failures, corrosion, or damage.
• Item Details: A list of 9 specific items is provided, including quantity, description, National Stock Number, and Part Number.
• Suggested Source: AVIATION DEVICES AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS, L.L.C. is identified as the sole source.
• Rationale: The document states that AVIATION DEVICES AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS, L.L.C. is the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) and owns all rights to the technical data, specifications, and drawings. The items are complex, require unique production techniques, and the government does not own the rights to manufacture them. These items are approved by the USCG's Aircraft Configuration Control Board and have an Acquisition Method Code (AMC) of 3, indicating direct acquisition from the manufacturer.
• Price Determination: Methods used include market research and comparison of proposed price with prices found reasonable on previous purchases.

This document indicates that the upcoming procurement for these specific MH-60T aircraft parts will be conducted on a sole-source basis, limiting competition to AVIATION DEVICES AND ELECTRONIC COMPONENTS, L.L.C. Bidders interested in these parts should note that this justification is in place for this acquisition.
