NAVSTA Mayport Non-Skid Decking Services 2015-2020

The Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command established a Master IDIQ on November 15, 2015, to provide non-skid deck removal and application services on U.S. Navy and military vessels, with the ordering period closed as of December 3, 2020. This vehicle is no longer active for new task orders; the most recent award occurred on January 4, 2021, nearly six years ago.

The vehicle contracted management, administrative, and production services for abrasive blast, ultra-high-pressure water jet, and power-tool cleaning of vessel decks, surface preparation, primer application, and non-skid deck covering installation aboard destroyers, cruisers, amphibious assault ships, dock landing ships, and submarines. Task orders reflect repair work on individual vessels including USS Eisenhower (CVN-69), USS Ford (CVN-78), USS Truman (CVN-75), USS Kearsarge (LHD-3), and multiple LCACs.

Surface Technologies Corporation dominates the vehicle, holding 113 of 176 total task orders (64%) and $27.4 million of the $35.5 million combined potential value. UHP Projects, LLC is the distant second with 46 orders and $6.3 million in potential value, followed by Main Industries, Inc. (14 orders, $1.1 million) and East Coast Repair & Fabrication, LLC (3 orders, $610 thousand). All orders funded Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command programs exclusively. About 63 percent of task orders carried no set-aside designation; the remaining 37 percent were competed as total small business awards. Task-order values ranged from under $700 to approximately $2.2 million, with individual vessel repairs typically between $30,000 and $500,000; notable outliers included USS Truman work at $1.74 million (December 2018), USS Wasp at $2.23 million (November 2019), and USS Ford at $955,936 (August 2020). All 176 orders and the full $35.5 million potential value have been obligated. Ordering velocity was heaviest in 2017 and 2018 (34 orders each year) and 2020 (40 orders), with a sharp decline to a single order in 2021 as the vehicle reached its end date.

The Mid-Atlantic Regional Maintenance Center (MARMC) has awarded a Master IDIQ for providing management, administrative and production services, materials, tools, equipment, and required support to accomplish removal of old deck covering and underlayment, including rubber base if present. Contractors under this vehicle utilize abrasive blast, ultra high pressure water jet, and power tools to clean decks, prepare surfaces, apply primer coatings, and install new non-skid deck covering onboard U.S. Navy or other military type vessels, including submarines.
