About this IDV
Naval Sea Systems Command awarded a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract to Sound Testing, Inc. with a ceiling of $133,805.00 on May 14, 2026. Sound Testing, Inc. is a woman-owned, Asian-Pacific American-owned small business based in Seattle, Washington.
Place of performance is Puget Sound Naval Shipyard and Naval Base Kitsap in Washington.
The IDIQ procures Marine Chemist Services including gas-free certification of confined spaces on steel barges (Barge Beluga with 16 tanks, Barge Edgecumbe with 16 tanks, and Barge 40 with 22 tanks) to ensure they are safe for entry. Contractors must employ National Fire Protection Association-certified Marine Chemists who maintain current certifications under 29 CFR 1915 and hold Green Badge security clearances. Work is performed during standard operating hours Monday through Friday, excluding federal holidays and the Christmas-New Year closure period.
The contract runs from Spring/Summer 2026 through May 14, 2031 (five-year ordering period). The contractor furnishes all personnel, equipment, supplies, facilities, transportation, tools, and materials; no government-furnished items are provided.
Recent task-order activity under this IDIQ remains sparse. Sound Testing, Inc. has historically concentrated work on Coast Guard vessel maintenance and Navy shipyard availabilities, including confined-space safety certifications and gas-free certifications on Coast Guard cutters and naval vessels. Activity accelerated from fewer than one award per year through 2023 to three awards in 2024, two in 2025, and three in 2026 year-to-date. Combined obligated dollars ($175 thousand) exceed combined potential value, indicating completion of earlier awards and modest revenue flow.
