The U.S. Military Sealift Command (MSC) awarded Rolls-Royce Marine North America Inc. a firm fixed-price purchase order valued at $145,705 on July 17, 2025, for oil distributor parts supporting the USNS Tippecanoe (T-AO-199), a Cimarron-class fleet replenishment oiler. The contract carries no set-aside designation and includes a completion date of January 19, 2026. Performance will occur in the Philippines. Rolls-Royce Marine North America, based in Walpole, Massachusetts and doing business as Rolls-Royce Naval Marine, is a large foreign-owned defense contractor and critical OEM supplier specializing in marine propulsion systems, power generation equipment, and specialized maritime components for the U.S. Navy, Coast Guard, and MSC.

This award represents a continuation of Rolls-Royce's extensive support to naval vessel operations. The contractor maintains two significant indefinite delivery vehicles: a $66.7 million IDV with U.S. Fleet Forces Command (Atlantic Fleet) through May 2028 and a Basic Ordering Agreement with Naval Supply Systems Command through June 2029. These vehicles position Rolls-Royce as a primary provider of OEM support, technical field services, and lifecycle logistics for critical naval components across the fleet. The current purchase order for oil distributor parts supports MSC's fleet replenishment mission by ensuring the continued operational readiness of the USNS Tippecanoe through provision of essential propulsion system components.
