About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard has issued a Special Notice titled "CGC AXE HI FOG SUPRESSION NOTICE OF INTENT" announcing an immediate requirement for the Coast Guard Cutter AXE to replace its current engine room fire fighting system. The Department of Homeland Security Coast Guard is seeking contractors to install a complete Marioff Hi-Fog MAU-150 Water Mist Fire Suppression System to protect the engine room at the vessel's home port in Morgan City, Louisiana. This project involves comprehensive removal of the existing CO2 fire suppression system and installation of the new water mist technology, including all associated piping, electrical components, and control systems. The government will furnish the primary fire suppression system unit valued at $20,000, while contractors must provide all labor, materials, and services for the complete installation. The work falls under the Ship Building and Repairing NAICS category and focuses on maintenance and repair of marine equipment.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to alert potential contractors of the Coast Guard's intent to procure installation services for this critical safety system upgrade with a due date of July 7, 2025. Contractors must be capable of providing comprehensive services including structural modifications, mechanical and electrical installations, hydrostatic testing, and system certification by a qualified Marioff technical representative. The performance period cannot exceed 120 calendar days from contract award, with work generally conducted Monday through Friday between 0730-1600 EST, though weekend and holiday work may be required. Key requirements include daily progress meetings with ship personnel, provision of an OEM-authorized technical representative for testing and crew training, and submission of electronic reports compatible with DHS systems. While no specific set-aside designation is indicated, contractors must demonstrate capability to handle complex marine system installations, welding, electrical work, and compliance with numerous Coast Guard specifications and standards.
