The Army Watercraft Sustainment Maintenance - Zone 2 (AWSM) is a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle established by the U.S. Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command to provide comprehensive maintenance, repair, and modernization services for Army watercraft located outside the continental United States. The contract, with a total ceiling value of $216 million, supports cyclical maintenance, drydocking, repairs, cleaning, painting, and modernization efforts for various maritime assets including tugs, landing craft, causeway systems, and pontoon vessels. The vehicle was awarded following a special notice solicitation that sought contractors capable of providing ongoing sustainment services for military watercraft in regions outside the continental United States.

The task orders under this IDIQ predominantly feature firm fixed-price delivery orders with values ranging from $1,000 to over $40 million, with most substantial maintenance contracts falling between $1 million and $27 million. Japanese contractors, particularly Yokohama Engineering Works, Ltd. and Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Ltd., have been the most frequent awardees, performing work primarily in Japan for the U.S. Army. The delivery orders consistently cover specific vessel maintenance activities such as programmed repairs, on-condition cyclic maintenance, service life extension programs (SLEP), and emergency repairs for vessels like Landing Craft Utility (LCU), Small Tugs, Modular Warping Tugs, and Causeway Ferry systems. No set-aside designations were used in the awarded task orders, indicating full and open competition. The contract's performance locations are predominantly in Japan, with some work also occurring in South Korea and Kuwait, reflecting the U.S. military's strategic maritime presence in the Asia-Pacific region.
