Indefinite Delivery Contract N3220519D7002

The Military Sealift Command (MSC), a component of the U.S. Navy, has awarded an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract to PPG Architectural Finishes, Inc., a division of PPG Industries, Inc., to provide a variety of specialized paints, coatings, solvents, and related products in support of shipbuilding, maintenance, and preservation initiatives across the Department of the Navy. The IDIQ contract, initially awarded in September 2020, has a total potential value exceeding $2.2 million and facilitates the regular issuance of firm fixed-price delivery orders for items such as N48/N7 D. Wright paints, N48/N7/K Miller-Scroggins paint, epoxy coatings and primers, heat resisting paints, and various thinners and solvents. These products are used to maintain, repair, and preserve MSC non-combatant vessels as well as Naval Sea Systems Command surface ships. The IDIQ contract does not have any set-aside designations, and the majority of the delivery orders have been awarded to PPG Architectural Finishes, Inc. without the use of small business or other socioeconomic programs.

The delivery orders issued under this IDIQ contract range in value from several hundred to over $250,000, with the majority being firm fixed-price contracts for the supply of specialty paints, coatings, and related consumables to support the Navy's fleet maintenance and preservation efforts. The delivery orders are typically fulfilled with products shipped to locations such as Alexander, AR, and occasionally to international locations like Singapore when supporting forward-deployed vessels. Through this IDIQ contract, the Military Sealift Command is consolidating its procurement of these high-demand, specialized marine coatings and supplies under a single contract vehicle managed by the Naval Sea Systems Command.
