About this opportunity
The U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center is procuring Defense Maritime Solutions (DMS) Shaft & Rudder Seal Kits for various classes of USCG vessels through an Indefinite Delivery Requirements contract structured as a firm-fixed-price agreement. The commercial products are exclusively manufactured by DMS or its authorized distributors, and offerors other than the OEM must provide a signed and certified distribution agreement from DMS to be considered for award. The evaluation will employ a best value source selection process, with technical capability, past performance, and OEM warranty carrying significantly more weight than price considerations. Critical deadlines have been extended multiple times through amendments, with the most recent adjustment setting the proposal submission deadline for February 27, 2026, at 11:00 EST, and requests for clarification due by January 22, 2026, at 11:00 EST. Offerors must submit technical capability documentation, past performance references, and for large businesses, a small business subcontracting plan.
This is an unrestricted solicitation with no set-aside designation, soliciting proposals from both the OEM and authorized distributors. The contract is structured as a five-year agreement with a base period and four additional one-year ordering periods running from March 2026 through March 2031, though Amendment 0003 modified the pricing structure from five years to three years firm-fixed-price due to industry concerns regarding cost volatility. The anticipated contract award date is on or about March 30, 2026, with the first delivery order expected April 2, 2026. All parts must be delivered to the USCG Surface Forces Logistics Center Warehouse in Curtis Bay, Baltimore, Maryland, within 120 days of each delivery order. The specific seal kit quantities and detailed requirements are outlined in the Schedule of Supplies attachment and the Statement of Work.
