About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command is soliciting proposals for the charter of up to three U.S. or foreign-flagged self-sustaining roll-on/roll-off vessels to transport approximately 284,989 square feet of military cargo, including wheeled vehicles, tracked vehicles, and breakbulk items, from Corpus Christi, Texas to Gdynia, Poland over a 25-day charter period. This unrestricted procurement is being conducted under FAR Parts 12 and 15, with the government seeking the lowest-priced, technically acceptable offerors. Key vessel requirements include a minimum laden speed of 15 knots, with laydays commencing between 30 January 2026 and 07 February 2026. Evaluation will be based on total pricing, which encompasses charter hire rates, fuel costs, and other pricing elements, with the goal of selecting vessels that can collectively carry 100% of the cargo list. Proposals are due on 20 November 2025 at 10:00 Eastern Time, providing interested parties with a six-day response window from the notice posting date.
This procurement includes no set-aside designations and does not identify any incumbent contractors. The solicitation does not specify an explicit award value or budget range; however, pricing will be evaluated based on charter rates and fuel consumption costs calculated at Marine Gas Oil pricing of $1,188.68 per metric ton for fiscal year 2025. The charter operation will span approximately 25 days with specific performance dates tied to laydays beginning in late January 2026 and extending through February 2026. Supporting documentation includes Service Contract Act wage determinations applicable to deep sea vessel services, establishing wage rates and fringe benefits for maritime crew positions ranging from ordinary seamen to master-level officers. The place of performance is Corpus Christi, Texas, with the cargo destination being Gdynia, Poland.
