This federal contract award is for the construction of DDG 51 Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyers for the U.S. Navy. The $5.325 billion, definitive, fixed-price incentive contract was awarded by the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) to Bath Iron Works Corporation, a subsidiary of General Dynamics Corp. The contract has a performance period through February 2029 and covers ship construction, maintenance, modernization, and sustainment activities. While this is not a set-aside contract, Bath Iron Works has received numerous subcontracts from prime contractors like Huntington Ingalls Inc. and Electric Boat Corporation for various components, equipment, and services related to the DDG 51 program, which is a Major Defense Acquisition Program (MDAP) managed by NAVSEA. The DDG 51 program is a critical Navy shipbuilding effort to maintain and modernize the fleet of Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyers.
