The Department of Commerce's National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) awarded Rockwell Automation, Inc. a single-award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract with a total potential value of $730,619. The contract, which runs from November 2023 through July 2028, is for the provision of main propulsion and bow thruster drives and control system support aboard three NOAA research and survey vessels - the NOAA Ships Pisces, Bell Shimada, and Reuben Lasker.
Under an initial $2.5 million firm fixed-price delivery order issued against the IDIQ, Rockwell Automation will provide maintenance, repair, testing, and inspection services for the critical ship propulsion and maneuvering systems on these vessels, which are used to collect oceanic and atmospheric data. The work will be performed in Silver Spring, Maryland. As a manufacturer and for-profit organization, Rockwell Automation has previously supported NOAA's fleet operations through prime contract awards, demonstrating its expertise in this domain.
