About this IDV
This Other Transaction Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV), awarded to Gravois Aluminum Boats LLC (operating as Metal Shark Boats) on December 21, 2020, establishes a $53.4 million ceiling for the design, prototype development, and demonstration of long-range unmanned surface vessels (USVs) for the United States Marine Corps. The contract vehicle does not employ a set-aside designation and represents a single-award IDV authorizing the government to place individual task orders against the established ceiling for research, development, and demonstration activities in autonomous maritime systems. As an Other Transaction Agreement, this vehicle operates under alternative contracting authority that provides flexibility in structuring arrangements for innovative or developmental work, allowing the Marine Corps to establish performance-based requirements and evaluation criteria outside traditional federal acquisition regulations.
Metal Shark Boats, headquartered in Jeanerette, Louisiana, brings substantial expertise in maritime platform design and manufacturing to this effort. The company specializes in custom welded aluminum and steel vessel construction and has demonstrated significant federal contracting experience through multiple IDVs with Naval Sea Systems Command, the United States Coast Guard, and the Marine Corps. Under this agreement, the contractor will leverage its design and fabrication capabilities to develop prototype long-range USV systems suitable for Marine Corps operational requirements, encompassing the full lifecycle from concept design through physical demonstration of autonomous vessel capabilities. The scope encompasses engineering, manufacturing, testing, and operational validation activities necessary to transition unmanned surface vessel technology into potential fielded systems for maritime operations.
