About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is conducting market research for a 35-day dry cargo time charter to transport containerized ammunition. The solicitation seeks U.S. and foreign flag vessels capable of carrying a minimum of 181 TEUs of ammunition (Hazard Class/Division 1.1-1.4S), with a maximum TEU gross weight of 40,000 lbs and an average gross weight of 23,000 lbs. Potential vendors must provide detailed vessel information, including vessel description, ability to accommodate two supercargo, daily charter rates, and delivery/redelivery bonuses. The vessel will transport cargo from Hiro, Japan to Military Ocean Terminal Concord, CA, with a charter period starting 24 June 2025. Interested parties must submit responses via email to Tiffany Gallon (tiffany.n.gallon.civ@us.navy.mil) by 1000 hours Eastern Time on 28 April 2025.
The procurement has no specific small business set-aside, though the small business size standard is set at 1,050 employees under NAICS code 483111. Large businesses are encouraged to outline potential subcontracting opportunities. The charter period is precisely defined from 24 June 2025 to 10 July 2025, spanning 35 days. While no specific award value is mentioned, the solicitation is a market research request and does not commit the government to a contract or to cover any associated costs. The vessel requirements are specific, including the need to transport ammunition with strict weight and capacity specifications, suggesting a potentially complex and specialized maritime logistics operation.
