About this opportunity

Naval Sea Systems Command at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard intends to award a sole-source contract to Excel Modular Scaffold and Leasing Corporation for rental of Excel staging equipment to support maintenance and repairs on the USS Springfield (SSN 761), a Virginia Class submarine, with a pre-solicitation notice due date of August 11, 2026. The procurement is not set-aside. This is a firm fixed-price sole-source acquisition under 41 U.S.C. 1901(e)(2), justified on the grounds that Excel's modular scaffolding system is the only responsible source because it is the sole authorized system compatible with existing Excel equipment at the shipyard and the Navy's substantial prior investment in Excel infrastructure, including work instructions, engineered drawings, and workforce training specific to Excel equipment. Alternative systems are incompatible with existing equipment and would create safety risks and require significant expenditure to revise procedures, retrain personnel, and delay project execution.

Place of performance is Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. The contract base period runs from September 21, 2026 through June 20, 2027, with two one-month option periods: June 21, 2027–July 20, 2027 and July 21, 2027–August 20, 2027. Estimated acquisition value is $806,158.08. The Contracting Officer will determine fair and reasonable pricing through historical contract price analysis and published price lists prior to award. The J&A was approved by the C400 Chief of Contracting on June 12, 2026. Excel Modular Scaffold and Leasing Corporation holds Cage Code 93D98.
