All refurbishment work must be completed within 180 days of contract award and performed at the contractor's facility, with finished bottles wrapped, palletized, and shipped to the Hawaii naval facility. No incumbent contractors or budget ranges are specified in this pre-solicitation notice, and the government has indicated that multiple awards may be made depending on the responses received. The work supports critical naval operations including submarines, surface vessels, and shore-based activities throughout the Pacific region.
