About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is conducting market research for a special time charter of an offshore supply vessel (OSV) to support the 7th Fleet's dive and survey operations. The procurement involves chartering a vessel capable of transporting personnel and equipment between Singapore and Guam, with specific maritime requirements including dynamic positioning capabilities, a minimum 9-knot transit speed, 5,000 nautical mile range, and a deck capable of holding substantial equipment loads. The vessel must provide accommodations for passengers, meals, berthing, internet access, and specialized equipment for technical diving operations, with delivery at Port of Singapore Authority Sembawang and redelivery at Naval Base Guam's Apra Harbor. Interested vendors must submit comprehensive responses including detailed vessel specifications, daily charter rates, fuel consumption data, and company information. The response deadline is 1000 hours Eastern Time on July 7, 2025, with submissions directed to David C. Anaya at the MSC Norfolk Strategic Sealift Program Support Office.
This procurement does not utilize any set-aside designations and follows FAR 19.102 small business size standards for water transportation services under NAICS code 483112, with a small business size limitation of 1,500 employees. The documents reveal conflicting information regarding charter duration and requirements, with one notice indicating a 40-day charter for up to 35 passengers with 120,000 lbs deck capacity, while another specifies approximately 20 days in September 2025 for six passengers with 50,000 lbs capacity. The vessel must maintain a minimum of 1,750 square feet of open deck space and include a mounted boom crane for launching and recovering watercraft and seabed equipment. Operations will span multiple locations including Singapore, Indonesia, and the Philippines, requiring the vessel to handle onloading and offloading of personnel and specialized diving equipment. No incumbent contractors or specific budget ranges are identified in the available documentation.
