The Army Watercraft Sustainment Maintenance - Zone 1 (AWSM) is an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the U.S. Army Tank-automotive and Armaments Command Life Cycle Management Command (TACOM LCMC) to provide comprehensive maintenance, repair, and sustainment services for various Army watercraft assets located in the continental United States. The contract has a total ceiling value of $241 million and was awarded on January 27, 2021, with a last date to order of January 25, 2026. Originally solicited through a Special Notice that sought contractors capable of performing scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, repairs, drydocking, and modernization efforts for vessel fleets, the vehicle supports the operational readiness of the Army's maritime assets.

Task orders under this IDIQ consistently focus on specific vessel maintenance and repair activities, with most being firm fixed-price delivery orders ranging from $1,000 initial coordination meetings to multi-million dollar comprehensive maintenance projects. Frequent prime contractors include Metal Trades Inc., Bay Ship & Yacht Co., Colonna's Ship Yard, Murtech Inc., and Lyon Shipyard Inc., who perform work on various vessel types such as Landing Craft Utility (LCU), Modular Causeway System (MCS) pontoons, Modular Warping Tugs, and Logistics Support Vessels. Typical task order values range from approximately $800,000 to $53 million, with performance periods generally spanning 6-24 months. These contracts do not utilize specific set-aside designations, indicating full and open competition, and performance locations are distributed across multiple states including South Carolina, California, Virginia, Maryland, and New Jersey, reflecting the Zone 1 geographical coverage.
