About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is seeking to procure a 27-day dry cargo time charter for Roll-on/Roll-off (RO/RO) vessel transportation services. The requirement calls for U.S. or foreign flag, self-sustaining vessels capable of carrying a minimum of 125,000 square feet of military cargo with a minimum laden speed of 15 knots. The contract performance involves transportation from Gdynia, Poland to Jacksonville, Florida, with laydays commencing and canceling on either November 1, 2025 or November 4, 2025. Offerors must indicate their estimated time of arrival and confirm their ability to meet at least one of the two specified laydays, though the government requires availability information for both dates. The pre-solicitation notice was posted on September 11, 2025, with a closing response date of September 18, 2025, under proposed solicitation number N3220525R6050.

This procurement is designated as unrestricted with no set-aside provisions, allowing all responsible sources to submit proposals based on the Small Business Administration's Procurement Center Representative concurrence with this decision. The government plans to make multiple awards for up to two vessels or until their transportation needs are satisfied. Contract award dollar amounts, specific award dates, and contractor selections remain to be determined at this pre-solicitation stage. The period of performance is approximately 27 days for each chartered vessel award, with the contract falling under NAICS code 483111 for Deep Sea Freight Transportation and PSC code V124 for Marine Charter services.
