Military Sealift Command is issuing a sources sought notice (amended 4 June 2026, response deadline 1400 hours Eastern Time 5 June 2026) for market research on vessel availability and pricing for a potential future 25-day dry cargo time charter. The procurement is unrestricted (no set-aside).
The vessel must be U.S. or foreign-flagged Roll-On/Roll-Off capable, with a minimum deck capacity of 270,000 square feet of military cargo (superseding the original 230,000 square feet specification).

Layday (commencement/canceling date) is 17 July 2026.
Responders must provide vessel name and description, proposed layday, daily charter hire rates with delivery and redelivery bonuses, fuel consumption rates for underway and inport operations, militarily useful square feet of deck space exceeding 7 feet 5 inches clearance, supercargo accommodation capacity, and company information including business size designation. The small business threshold for water transportation services (NAICS 483111) is 1,050 employees.
Responses are submitted via email to Tiffany Gallon at TIFFANY.N.GALLON.CIV@US.NAVY.MIL or (564) 226-8986. This notice is market research only and does not commit the government to award a contract.
