The Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a multiple-award indefinite delivery contract to Goodrich Corporation's Engineered Polymer Products division for the procurement of experimental hull treatment tiles. With a potential value of $72 million and a period of performance through June 2026, this contract aims to provide experimental hull treatment materials on a recurring basis for one to two submarines per year to support the Navy's shipbuilding and maintenance programs.
Under this contract, the first delivery order was issued for a post-award meeting to be held in Westlake, Maryland by July 2021. Valued at $1,000, this firm fixed-price order served to obligate the minimum funding guarantee at the start of the contract period. The original pre-solicitation notice sought market research to inform the acquisition strategy for a future firm-fixed price multiple award contract, with responses requested by January 2020 from sources capable of fabricating and delivering experimental hull treatment bonded shapes and tiles in various sizes and quantities. Issued without a set-aside by the Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division, this contract aims to support the Navy's research and development needs for submarine experimental hull treatment technologies over the next five years.
