Indefinite Delivery Contract HTC71124DWV34

This Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) was awarded by the Air Mobility Command (AMC), a component of the U.S. Department of Defense, to Sealift Incorporated of Delaware, a for-profit limited liability company that specializes in maritime transportation and logistics services for the U.S. government. The contract, valued at a ceiling of $4 billion, is part of the Universal Services Contract - 10 (USC-10) program, which supports the Surface Deployment and Distribution Command's global mission of deploying, sustaining, and redeploying U.S. forces through commercially available international ocean and intermodal distribution services. Under this multiple-award IDC, with a performance period from September 2024 to August 2029, Sealift is positioned to provide ocean transportation and distribution services for a variety of cargo, including military equipment, supplies, and commodities, across numerous trade routes in support of U.S. military logistics and operations worldwide.

The contract was not set aside for any specific business category. It was awarded as part of the renewal of the Voluntary Intermodal Sealift Agreement (VISA) contingency contract, which provides for contingency sealift services, including ocean transportation charters, intermodal movements, infrastructure, and management expertise, to support worldwide Department of Defense operations. The government has made several changes to the VISA Terms and Conditions, including removing the Liner Terms and Conditions and incorporating them into the Universal Service Contract, as well as revising the facility clearance and pricing methodology requirements. The contract has a base period of October 1, 2024 to September 30, 2029, with one 5-year option period and a 6-month extension.
