The Department of the Navy's Military Sealift Command awarded Bay City Marine, Inc., a small business subchapter S corporation, a multiple award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract known as the West Coast General Ship Repair MAC. This IDIQ has a $55 million ceiling and a 5-year period of performance to provide a range of general ship repair, maintenance, and certification services for Navy and Military Sealift Command vessels operating on the U.S. West Coast. Under this IDIQ, Bay City Marine has received numerous firm-fixed price delivery orders totaling over $20 million to date for work such as voyage repairs, deperming, life raft servicing, crane repairs, and other critical upkeep on ships like the USNS Mercy, USNS Washington Chambers, USNS John Lewis, and USNS Miguel Keith. The contracted services support the Military Sealift Command's mission of equipping Navy components with effective ocean transportation for peace and war through the operation of non-combatant auxiliary and special mission vessels.
The original solicitation was a total small business set-aside seeking contractors capable of performing a variety of hull, mechanical, electrical, and other ship repair and maintenance work in locations like San Diego, Bremerton, and Honolulu. Evaluation criteria focused on technical qualifications and price, with contractors required to submit details of up to three recent similar projects. The new IDIQ contracts have a $45 million ceiling and are intended to replace an existing $77 million vehicle held by thirteen incumbent contractors.
