A] GENERAL INFORMATION:

1] This Statement of Work contains the requirements for annual haul-outs of a group of Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary (FKNMS) vessels based in Key Largo FL. Vessel identification:

2] All work is to be accomplished at the contractor’s facility. The contractor’s facility shall be located less than 100 miles from 95230 Overseas Highway, Key Largo, FL 33037. NOAA shall deliver each vessel to the contractor’s facility on the boat’s trailer, and pick up the vessel on the trailer after completion of all work. The period of performance for completing all work on all vessels listed above is:

November 1, 2024 through February 28, 2025 The scheduling of delivery and pick-up of each vessel will be finalized with the Contractor prior to start of the performance period.

3] Coordination of the work schedules shall be the responsibility of the contractor so as to avoid any delays or disruptions. The contractor shall provide all facilities, labor, materials, tools, and services required to complete the work.

4] Upon arrival at the contractor’s facility, the contractor shall accept full responsibility for the safety of each vessel, including fire protection, security patrols, and protection from adverse environmental conditions. This responsibility shall terminate only after all work is complete, accepted by NOAA, and NOAA personnel remove each vessel from the contractor’s facility.

5] NOAA employees and contractors may be working on board the vessels during the contract period of performance on a not-to-interfere basis. During this period, these personnel shall be given full access to the vessels during normal working hours.

6] The contractor shall ensure that all machinery and equipment used lifting the vessels from their trailers (if required) is fully functional, suitable for the task, rated for loads at least 20% greater than the maximum weight of the vessels, and operated by trained, competent personnel. Docking plans for the vessels are not available, and proper support positioning is the responsibility of the contractor.

7] The Government reserves the right to award some or all tasks defined herein.

8] All work performed under this SOW shall meet or exceed all current requirements of ABYC and USCG (Subchapter T) as applicable to the size and type of each vessel, in addition to any specific requirements stated below.

9] In the event defects or damage unrelated to the work tasks are discovered on a vessel, the contractor shall submit a Condition Found Report (CFR) to NOAA staff. The CFR shall define corrective actions needed, the cost for that work (separated into labor, materials, services, and total), and the impact to the period of performance. No additional work shall be requested or performed without prior approval by the Government Contact Point and the Contracting Officer.

10] Any welding, if required as part of the tasks below, shall be performed by certified welders working in accordance with approved weld procedures. Certifications and approvals by USCG, ABS, or another nationally recognized authority are acceptable, and copies of these shall be provided with the quote.

11] All work performed on the vessels shall be accomplished as described unless alternatives are presented in writing BEFORE the work commences, and are agreed to by NOAA. Any work that does not adhere to the descriptions below will be redone at the contractor’s expense and within the defined period of performance.

12] Bidders are strongly encouraged to inspect the vessels before submitting proposals, and understand all general and local conditions that may affect the cost of the performance of the contract to the extent such information is reasonably obtainable. In no event shall a failure to inspect the vessel constitute grounds for a claim after award of the contract. The vessels are located at 95230 Overseas Highway, Key Largo, FL 33037.
