About this opportunity

The U.S. Coast Guard Surface Forces Logistics Center has issued a Notice of Intent to award a sole source contract to Neuver Maritime Inc. for the procurement of two steering actuator rotors destined for the USCGC Healy, a 420-foot cutter vessel. This Special Notice was published on October 24, 2025, with a comment deadline of October 28, 2025. The procurement is being conducted under FAR 13.106-1(b)(1), which permits sole source acquisitions when only one responsible source is available to meet agency requirements. Neuver Maritime Inc., the original equipment manufacturer located in Norway, holds exclusive proprietary rights to these critical steering system components, and no other vendors are licensed or authorized to manufacture parts meeting the required specifications.

The objective of this procurement is to obtain two replacement steering actuator rotors configured identically to those originally provided during the USCGC Healy production line, with each unit measuring 1400x1400x1600 mm and weighing 4,700 kg. The total contract value is $313,280.86, with an anticipated lead time of approximately 180 days under a firm fixed-price agreement. This is not a request for competitive proposals; the notice functions as notification of the sole source intent rather than an invitation for bids from other contractors. The Coast Guard conducted extensive market research from February through August 2025, including a sources sought notice that yielded only one unqualified response, supporting the determination that Neuver Maritime is the sole source capable of meeting the specialized requirements. Only Neuver Maritime Inc. is eligible to participate in this procurement due to its exclusive ownership of the proprietary technical data and engineering specifications necessary for manufacturing these components compatible with the vessel's existing systems.
