Global Husbanding Services Provider (HSP) Industry Day

This notice is to inform all current and potential Husbanding Service Providers (HSPs) that the Naval Supply System Command (NAVSUP) is in the process of developing a new solicitation for husbanding services that will encompass a global acquisition strategy approach to soliciting and awarding HSP contracts. The intent of this new strategy is to further standardize the process of acquiring husbanding services worldwide and ideally simplify contracts for our husbanding contractors.
In anticipation of this new strategy, NAVSUP will be hosting three industry days to provide information to interested vendors on the changes that will be coming to the HSP contracts and to solicit feedback on the changes anticipated, including a draft Performance Work Statement (PWS).
The three industry day location and dates are as follows:
April 10-11, 2019 â€" Yokosuka, Japan
April 23-24, 2019 â€" Naples, Italy
May 8, 2019 â€" Norfolk, Virginia.
Vendors are welcome and encouraged to attend any or all of the three industry days. Please note, however, that while we anticipate providing the same presentation at each industry day, there may be some region specific information provided so plan accordingly when deciding on which to attend. In addition, there may be some additional information provided at the Norfolk Industry day as a result of questions/concerns expressed during the first two. Companies might be limited to 3 attendees per industry day to ensure sufficient space for all to attend.
Finally, we will be providing time for one-on-one meetings for current and potential vendors to address specific questions related to the proposed Global Approach as well as to address other concerns on existing contracts.
Interested vendors need to provide the following information:
- Location of industry day(s) to attend;
- Company Name, Individual names of attendees, contact information;
- If the company is requesting an individual meeting.
Please send this information to Gary Trimble at gary.trimble@eu.navy.mil and Courtney Cobbs at Courtney.Cobbs@eu.navy.mil by 5pm (GMT +1) Naples, Italy time, 22 March, 2019. After review of the requests, the Government will provide to contractors specific information for the requested industry day including location and time and if any documentation will be required for access..
