About this opportunity
The U.S. Navy Naval Sea Systems Command is soliciting concept design proposals for the Next Generation Logistics Ship (NGLS), a new class of vessels intended to augment the current Combat Logistics Force. The NGLS will provide refueling, rearming, and resupply capabilities for Naval and Marine Corps assets in support of Distributed Maritime Operations, Littoral Operations in Contested Environments, and Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations. Contractors are required to deliver cost-effective ship designs and approaches that meet the capabilities specified in the Next Generation Logistics Ship Circular of Requirements (COR) Rev 1.17, conduct a global market survey for replenishment ships that could be built in U.S. shipyards, assess feasibility and affordability of current requirements through design development, and provide information regarding compliance with 2025 National Defense Authorization Act basic and functional design requirements. The Government anticipates awarding up to three contracts under this multiple award contract (MAC) solicitation. The original proposal submission deadline was March 6, 2026, though multiple amendments have extended this date to November 21, 2025, with the most recent amendment (A0010) addressing bidder questions 74-78. All proposals must be submitted through the Procurement Integrated Enterprise Environment (PIEE) Solicitation Module, and controlled documents require requesters to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (Addendum L-2) and email the contracting officers.
This solicitation contains no set-aside designation and does not identify any incumbent contractors or specific award values or budget ranges. The procurement falls under NAICS Code 336611 (Ship Building and Repairing) and PSC Code 1915 (Cargo and Tanker Vessels), indicating the focus on maritime construction capabilities. The NGLS is envisioned as a single ship type smaller than existing Combat Logistics Force ships, though the specific number of vessels to be constructed or timeline for delivery has not been disclosed in this solicitation notice. Performance of work is anticipated to occur at United States shipyards capable of constructing naval vessels. The extensive amendment history, with ten amendments issued since the original posting in September 2025, reflects active government engagement with industry throughout the proposal development period, addressing 78 bidder questions and incorporating Radical FAR Overhaul (RFO) changes to align with updated federal acquisition regulations.
