About this opportunity
The Department of the Navy Military Sealift Command is conducting a sole-source contract award to provide one clean, approved U.S. Flag tanker enrolled in the Tanker Security Program for one voyage, with award anticipated by June 10, 2026. The vessel must be equipped with CONSUL receiving stations to support Combat Logistics Fleet direct fuel delivery operations. MSC justified bypassing full and open competition under FAR 6.103-2 (unusual and compelling urgency), citing limited CONSUL-certified assets available in the Tanker Security Program and the operational necessity to sustain petroleum product tanker supply. Among ten Tanker Security Program participants, only one vessel with required approved CONSUL drawings is readily available and prepared for immediate installation without current MSC contract obligations. The contract is fixed-price with estimated value calculated from charter hire rates, delivery bonuses, and fuel consumption; the contracting officer determined the anticipated cost fair and reasonable based on prior purchase prices. The J&A approval is signed by Christopher Tomlin, Contracting Officer (757-443-5879).
