About this IDV
Argent Marine Operations, Inc. was awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract on October 1, 2024, by the U.S. Air Force to provide Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) contingency services under the Department of Defense United States Transportation Command. The contract provides for ocean transportation, intermodal movements, infrastructure support, and management expertise to sustain worldwide Department of Defense sealift operations. The contract carries a zero-dollar ceiling value with a base period extending from October 1, 2024, through September 30, 2029, followed by one five-year option period and a six-month extension, with an ultimate completion date of September 30, 2034. No set-aside was applied to this multiple-award contract vehicle, making it open to all qualified participants in the maritime services industry.
The underlying solicitation, posted as a pre-solicitation notice on March 14, 2024, indicated that the government revised the VISA Terms and Conditions to consolidate Liner Terms and Conditions into the Universal Service Contract framework and to update facility clearance and pricing methodology requirements. Participating contractors commit a percentage of their U.S. flag vessel capacity to support the program's operational and contingency stages globally. The contract structure reflects the government's requirement for sustained sealift capacity availability rather than guaranteed transaction volumes, with current VISA participants obligated to either maintain capacity commitments or formally withdraw from the program.
