The Army Watercraft Sustainment Maintenance - Zone 3 (AWSM) is a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicle focused on providing comprehensive maintenance, repair, and sustainment services for various U.S. Army watercraft assets located in Northeast and Southeast Asia, and the Central Pacific Coast region. The contract, with a total ceiling value of $186 million, supports scheduled and unscheduled maintenance, repairs, certifications, and inspections for different vessel classes, including Logistics Support Vessels (LSV), Landing Craft Utility (LCU), and other maritime assets. The original solicitation indicated that eligible contractors must demonstrate capabilities in quality control, safety, maintenance experience with various watercraft classes, and meet specific requirements for pier-side sustainment services.

Task orders under this IDIQ typically range from $37,500 to $1.6 million, with most being firm-fixed-price delivery orders for emergency or unprogrammed repairs to specific vessels. Key prime contractors include Metal Trades Inc., HII Fleet Support Group LLC, Lyon Shipyard Inc., and several international firms such as Sumitomo Heavy Industries, Yokohama Engineering Works, and Sunjin Entech Co., Ltd. The task orders are primarily awarded by the U.S. Army TACOM Life Cycle Management Command and do not utilize small business set-aside designations, indicating full and open competition. Performance locations span a wide geographic area, including Virginia, Hawaii, Japan, South Korea, Kuwait, and other locations within Zone 3, reflecting the contract's comprehensive approach to maintaining the Army's global maritime assets. Repairs typically address mechanical systems, fire detection, davit systems, and other critical vessel infrastructure.
