About this file

This document contains a justification and approval for a sole source contract modification. The Navy plans to add a new work item to an existing firm fixed price contract with NASSCO for drydock repair and maintenance of the USS CURTIS WILBUR (DDG 54). The contract was originally awarded on January 24, 2022 for an unknown amount under solicitation N55236-22-C-0001. The sole source justification is due to the ship already being in NASSCO's shipyard for major repairs, leaving insufficient time for another contractor to perform the work before the ship's scheduled deployment. Lessons learned will be implemented to avoid future change orders affecting mission readiness.

J&A Number:

N55236230046 in NASSCO’s shipyard undergoing major repairs and it is impracticable for another company to perform the work.

8. ACTION TAKEN TO REMOVE BARRIERS TO COMPETITION:

This availability is the last opportunity to complete this upgrade prior to deployment and this work is needed to fulfill required operational capability. Lessons learned will be implemented to ensure Requiring Activities become more pro-active in modifying solicitations prior to award to mitigate issuing change orders that affect mission readiness for ships.
