Quick Summary

The United States Coast Guard (USCG), Aviation Logistics Center (ALC), intends to award a sole source Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) call to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation for a Tail Cone and Tail Rotor Pylon Kit. This kit is critical for the MH-60T Service Life Extension Program (SLEP), ensuring continued airworthiness and extending the operational life of the MH-60T fleet. This requirement is unrestricted.

Scope of Work

The requirement is for a 41-piece materials-only kit consisting of MH-60R production parts. These parts are specifically designed to address technical modifications needed for installing MH-60R tails onto MH-60T hulls. The kit will be used for Test and Evaluation Trial Installation on Fleet Aircraft, as existing tail section components are nearing their 19,000-hour service life limit. Attachment 1 provides a detailed list of items, including part numbers and quantities.

Sole Source Justification & Response

The USCG justifies this sole source award to Sikorsky Aircraft Corporation (CAGE: 78286) due to the proprietary nature of the required technical data, which is exclusively held by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). The USCG did not purchase rights to this data, making competitive procurement infeasible.

This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. However, all responsible sources may submit a quotation to Trenton.C.Twiford@uscg.mil (with "70Z03826QJ0000147" in the subject line) by 2:00 P.M. EDT on July 9, 2026. The Government will consider these submissions, but a determination not to compete the procurement is solely at the Government's discretion. Award will be based on fair and reasonable pricing.
