About this opportunity

The Department of the Army National Guard has issued a Special Notice (ID: eec69810a3de447cb94bc34899459e78) regarding a limited source contract for inspection, maintenance, and activation of three Mark VI Patrol Boats. The notice was posted on May 14, 2025, with a response deadline of May 30, 2025, and is designated as a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity. The contract will be awarded under the NAICS category 336612 for Boat Building and PSC category J019 for maintenance and repair of small watercraft. The agency intends to award a single-source contract to SAFE Boats International LLC under FAR 6.302-1(a) due to proprietary materials within the vessels. The contract scope involves preparing the boats for transportation from Norfolk, Virginia to Alpena, Michigan through comprehensive inspection, maintenance, and sea trial services.

The primary objective of this Special Notice is to inform potential contractors about the government's intent to award a non-competitive contract to SAFE Boats International LLC for specialized boat preparation services. While this is not a competitive solicitation, the government will consider any information submitted in response to the notice. The agency retains sole discretion to determine whether to proceed with the single-source award or pursue a competitive procurement based on responses received. Eligibility is implicitly limited, as the notice suggests only SAFE Boats International LLC has the capabilities to perform the required services due to unique vessel characteristics. Contractors are advised that this is an informational notice, and no formal request for capability statements is being made. A Request for Quote will be issued directly to SAFE Boats International LLC, with an anticipated award date of May 30th. The notice emphasizes that the government's determination to proceed with a non-competitive procurement is at its exclusive discretion.

Notice text

This notice is for informational purposes only. The MICRTC intends to award a single source contract to SAFE Boats International LLC for Inspection, maintenance, and Sea Trial services for (3) Mark VI boats under the authority of FAR 6.302-1(a), due to patented material contained within the vessels themselves. This requirement is for services to test and ensure seaworthiness prior to movement from Norfolk, Va to Alpena, Michigan. No other source has the ability to supply the material necessary to prepare the boats for the voyage.

This notice is not a request for offers and a competitive solicitation will not be issued. A Request for Quote will be issued to SAFE Boats International LLC, with an anticipated award date on or about May 30th. This is not a request for capability statements, but the Government will consider all information submitted in response to this notice.

A determination by the Government to not compete this requirement based on responses received is solely within the discretion of the Government. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement or to proceed with award to a single source.
