About this opportunity
The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is seeking eligible businesses to provide specialized propeller hub overhaul services for the USNS CATWABA, specifically focusing on refurbishing two E-85/4 ATF Shore Side Spare propeller hubs through Propulsion System Inc. (PSI), the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and an ABS-recognized marine propulsion shafting repair facility. The procurement will require comprehensive hub inspection, renewal of critical components including retaining ring rod seals, bearing rings, sliding blocks, piston rings, and associated repair kits, with mandatory hydrotesting to meet OEM specifications and preparation for long-term storage. Capability statements are due by February 10, 2025, at 1:00 PM EST, with an anticipated solicitation release on February 21, 2025. Evaluation will likely emphasize technical capabilities, facility qualifications, and potential partnerships or teaming arrangements. Respondents should provide detailed company profiles demonstrating expertise in marine equipment maintenance and repair.
The contract opportunity is classified under NAICS code 811310 for commercial and industrial machinery repair and is open to all small businesses, with specific encouragement for Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned, HUBZone, and 8(a) firms. While no specific set-aside has been designated, the government will provide the propeller hubs and manage shipping logistics from Norfolk, VA to PSI's facility in Seattle, WA. The period of performance extends through September 1, 2025, with an expected contract award by April 15, 2025. Although precise contract value is not specified, the complexity of the overhaul work and the specialized nature of marine propulsion equipment suggest a potentially significant investment. The procurement process emphasizes technical competence and the ability to perform precise, manufacturer-specified refurbishment of critical maritime infrastructure components.
