(5) ABR Assessment Checklist

1. Purpose. To revise the policy, guidelines, and procedures governing the application for and issuance of the Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA) and the Agreement for Boat Repair (ABR) per enclosure (1), to firms meeting the eligibility requirements prescribed in enclosures

(2) through (5).

2. Cancellation. CNRMCINST 4280.1.

3. Background. Per reference (a), NAVSEAINST 4280.2C defined the minimum eligibility qualification requirements for obtaining/retaining a Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA) and/or Agreement for Boat Repair (ABR). This instruction identifies managerial, technical and facilities characteristics that a ship/boat repair contractor must possess and maintain to ensure that the repair effort on a naval vessel is accomplished satisfactorily. Coordinated by Commander, Navy Regional Maintenance Center (CNRMC), Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) approves all MSRA and ABR certifications in the continental United States.

CNRMC has overall responsibility for the management of the MSRA and ABR certification processes.

4. Discussion

a. Shipboard repair work is complex and demanding. The type of work that comprises ship repair, and the conditions under which it is performed, require that NAVSEA contract only with ship repair companies that are fully capable of conducting all aspects of shipboard work. The compact arrangement of machinery and systems aboard ship, the sophistication of systems installed in naval ships, and the Navy's absolute requirement for reliable operation, create a unique repair environment that demands special expertise and capability. Further, naval ships are designed and built with a high degree of interaction among components and systems.

Repairs or modifications to a single system or component may have wide-spread effects on the operation of many other systems or components that are physically remote from the one being repaired. A thorough understanding of these effects and the ability to manage shipboard work as an integrated package are essential.

b. Successful accomplishment of ship repair work requires careful coordination of a work force possessing a wide mix of skills and trades. Even relatively minor repairs may entail the following, but not limited to:

(1) Advance planning;

(2) Engineering;

(3) Material identification and procurement;

(4) Material management;

(5) Work site preparation;

(6) Rip-out and removal of interferences;

(7) Handling, removal and disposal of hazardous materials/wastes;

(8) Removal, disassembly, repair and reassembly;

(9) Reinstallation and test;

(10) Restoration and test of interferences;

(11) Work site restoration;

(12) Quality Assurance;

(13) Integrated system testing;

(14) Updating of documentation;

(15) Safety Requirements;

(16) Physical and information assurance security;

(17) Maintenance Support Computer Software and Hardware.

c. Timeliness, safety, and quality control are of utmost importance in the conduct of ship repair in order to return the ship to a mission-ready state as well as to provide maximum assurance that it will remain so while deployed until the next scheduled maintenance period.

d. The two-tier vessel repair certification process, the MSRA and the ABR, was established to ensure the Navy receives a satisfactory repair effort and to promote an active, competitive private sector industrial base to repair Navy ships. A Contractor may hold both an MSRA and an ABR, depending on their levels of expertise, capability and workload capacity.

e. This instruction cancels the Remote Site Performance Plan, more commonly referred to as a “Remote Site MSRA.” Remote site plans were not in accordance with the intent of the MSRA and created unnecessary confusion in its purpose and execution.

5. Policy

a. Master Ship Repair Agreement (MSRA)

(1) The MSRA is not a contract; it is a location or region-specific contract agreement vehicle issued to those firms that have the facilities, management, organization and production capabilities to perform an entire complex repair and alteration package. This written instrument contains clauses, terms and conditions applying to future contracts for repairs, alterations and/or additions to vessels. Additionally, it contemplates separate future contracts that will incorporate by reference or attachment the required and applicable clauses agreed upon in the master agreement. Contractors must submit separate applications for each location or region for which certification is desired.

(2) MSRA eligibility requirements are set forth in Enclosure (2).

(3) The MSRA is not a qualifying documentation for future contracts, as MSRA eligibility requirements reflect a generic work package requirement. The Procuring Contracting Officer (PCO) may determine that a complete Pre-Award Survey is required prior to award of a job order to verify a contractor's managerial capabilities, financial status, production capacity, percentage of work subcontracted, and/or facilities capabilities and capacities among other factors. PCOs may determine not to award job orders to Contractors based solely on their MSRA certification or their Acquisition and Solicitation Plans. The PCO may determine to use the location-specific MSRA certification survey as a qualifying factor for contract award.

(4) The foundation of an MSRA is that a firm has the internal organization and capability to perform 55% of a work package within its own facilities, utilizing its own shops and work force. Specifically, the firm must possess or have committed access to a pier or drydock located within the firm's immediate geographic region that must be accessible to and capable of berthing vessels in the performance of the duties as outlined in Enclosure (2). The latter requirement, when evaluated during an onsite survey, is viewed generically as having the appropriate mix of capabilities to perform structural, electrical, electronic, machinery and piping work. Since the scope of work will vary between work packages, an MSRA does not automatically certify that a contractor can accomplish a specific work package.

(5) MSRAs will be reviewed every five (5) years, or as required, based on a significant change in a firm’s status; e.g. mergers, novation agreements, company closure, etc., or unsatisfactory performance ratings. Major organizational shifts in a firm, including novation agreements, mergers, etc., require a firm to recertify within one (1) year of finalization. If a recertification is required due to unsatisfactory performance ratings, CNRMC will notify the MSRA holder and recertification is to be completed within one (1) year of notification. All MSRA holders will automatically be considered for an ABR.

(6) Contractors failing to qualify for an MSRA are highly encouraged to apply for an

ABR in order to maintain or build experience and participation in the surface ship repair environment while working to improve on their MSRA eligibility.

b. Agreement for Boat Repair (ABR)

(1) The ABR is not a contract; it is a location or region-specific contract agreement vehicle issued to those firms that demonstrate managerial capabilities to schedule and to control boat/craft repairs in a specific location or region. This written instrument contains clauses, terms, and conditions applying to future contracts for repairs, alterations and/or additions to vessels. Additionally, it contemplates separate future contracts that will incorporate by reference or attachment the required and applicable clauses agreed upon in the master agreement. Contractors must submit separate applications for each location or region for which certification is desired.

(2) ABR eligibility requirements are set forth in Enclosure (3).

(3) The ABR is not a qualifying documentation for future contracts. As the eligibility requirements reflect a generic work package requirement, a PCO may determine that a complete Pre-Award Survey is required prior to award of a job order to verify a contractor's managerial capabilities, financial status, production capacity, percentage of work subcontracted, and/or facilities capabilities and capacities among other factors. PCOs may determine not to award job orders to Contractors based solely on their ABR certification or their Acquisition and Solicitation Plans. The PCO may determine to use the location specific ABR certification survey as a qualifying factor for contract award.

(4) The foundation for an ABR certification is validation that a firm has the technical and production capabilities to repair steel, aluminum or fiberglass hulled vessels and possess the physical capability and capacity to lift the boat/craft out of the water. Specifically, an ABR holder must have the management, production, organization and facilities to accomplish the scope of work defined for MSRA above. The ABR was established for those contractors who can perform boat/craft repair and overhaul work as well as non-complex work on Navy ships.

The scope of work may encompass Chief of Naval Operations (CNO) Availabilities, Fleet Availabilities, boat/craft overhauls and dockside repairs, as well as selective shipboard component repairs.

(5) ABRs will be recertified every five (5) years, or as required, based on unsatisfactory performance ratings. In the event a recertification, due to unsatisfactory performance ratings, is warranted, CNRMC will notify the ABR holder; recertification will be required within one (1)

17 Feb 21 year of the notification. An ABR holder may request a resurvey in support of an MSRA application, following enclosure (2), should their capabilities or facilities be upgraded to the specifications prescribed therein.

c. Neither the MSRA, nor the ABR, is to be used to evaluate the qualification requirements for submarine repair work.
