Dive Inspection, Cleaning and Repair Services 2012-2017

The Dive Inspection, Cleaning and Repair Services Master IDIQ, awarded by the United States Coast Guard (USCG) in August 2012, is a contract vehicle focused on underwater hull maintenance and inspection services for various Coast Guard Cutters, specifically targeting 87, 110, and 210 foot vessels. The contract enables specialized marine diving contractors to perform comprehensive underwater hull services, including hull cleaning, underwater body inspections, and related maintenance tasks for Coast Guard maritime assets. These services are critical for maintaining vessel structural integrity, preventing marine growth, and ensuring operational readiness of coastal and maritime vessels.

The task orders under this contract demonstrate a consistent pattern of underwater diving services across multiple Coast Guard vessels, with individual task order values ranging from approximately $1,900 to $12,700. Most task orders were set aside for either Competitive 8(a) small businesses or Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, indicating a strong commitment to supporting small business participation. The task orders typically have short completion timelines, often between two weeks to two months, and cover a wide geographic range of Coast Guard vessel locations. The work predominantly involves underwater hull inspections, cleaning services, and maintenance assessments for specific cutters such as CGC Alligator, CGC Cormorant, CGC Bluefin, and numerous other maritime vessels. The contract's shared ceiling of $40,000 suggests a focused, tactical approach to underwater marine maintenance services for the Coast Guard fleet.
