The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded a $8.4 million firm fixed price purchase order to Bay Ship & Yacht CO. for drydock repairs to the NOAA ship RAINIER. The solicitation sought drydocking and repair services between October 2022 and January 2023 at the contractor's certified facility on the U.S. West Coast. Services included work on hull structures, machinery systems, electrical systems, deck equipment, and other areas of the vessel. Evaluation was based on technical capability, past performance, and price. As the requirement was set aside for small businesses under NAICS code 336611, Ship Building and Repairing, Bay Ship & Yacht CO. will perform the drydocking and over 80 line items of repair work to ensure the RAINIER can continue fulfilling NOAA's oceanographic research and survey missions.
