About this file

This document is a Request for Information (RFI) issued by the Department of the Navy's Program Executive Office Industrial Infrastructure (PEO II) seeking industry input on the viability of a public-private venture to construct, own, operate, and maintain a dry dock capable of supporting the FORD-class aircraft carrier and other Navy ships on the West Coast of the United States.

The RFI provides details on the desired characteristics of the dry dock, including dimensions, docking displacement, cranes, shore power, and various utility requirements. It also includes questions for industry on topics such as location, dock type, construction plans, maintenance requirements, and potential cost sharing arrangements. The Navy is interested in understanding industry's ability and willingness to provide this FORD-class docking capability, as well as any potential alternative capabilities that could still increase the US maritime industrial base. Responses are requested via email to the provided points of contact, with no page limit or requirement for a detailed proposal.
