About this opportunity
The Naval Sea Systems Command issued a Class Justification and Approval (CJ&A) document authorizing a sole source contract award to Huntington Ingalls Industries - Newport News Shipbuilding (HII-NNS) for Aircraft Carrier Engineering Support (ACES) covering fiscal years 2026 through 2030. The contract, valued at $438 million over the five-year period, provides comprehensive engineering, technical, design, and configuration management support for CVN 68 and CVN 78 class aircraft carriers, including drawings, design studies, configuration management, engineering analysis, technical data preparation, on-site representation, training, and modernization support. The Navy justified the sole source award on the basis that HII-NNS is the only U.S. Navy nuclear-powered aircraft carrier builder with the specialized technical knowledge, extensive data repository, and highly trained personnel necessary to fulfill the requirement, positioning it uniquely as the Propulsion Plant Engineering Activity, Engineering Configuration Manager, and In-Service Engineering Agent for these vessels. The contract was awarded on November 25, 2025, under contract number N00024-26-C-2100, with funding derived from multiple Navy accounts including Operations and Maintenance, Shipbuilding, and Research and Development. This sole source arrangement ensures rapid response to modernization and maintenance requirements while maintaining critical fleet operational capabilities.
