Refurbishment and Factory Acceptance Testing of SEAMAC Winch

The Naval Surface Warfare Center Carderock Division (NSWCCD), under the Department of the Navy Naval Sea Systems Command, is seeking refurbishment and factory acceptance testing services for a SEAMAC Array Winch (Serial Number 1018) that has been out of service following a failed dynamic testing event. The contractor must provide complete refurbishment of the winch to original specifications and conduct comprehensive static and dynamic factory acceptance testing to validate performance and restore full operational capability. Key contract requirements include submitting a Factory Acceptance Test Report documenting qualification test results and a Government Property Inventory Report, both in electronic format with Distribution Statement D limiting access to Department of Defense entities and contractors. The evaluation will assess the contractor's capabilities, pricing, FOB point, payment terms, and business size as outlined in the capabilities statement submission. Interested parties must submit their capabilities statements by 10:00 AM EDT on December 10, 2025, to Tracy McDonough at tracy.l.mcdonough2.civ@us.navy.mil.

This is a sole-source procurement with no set-aside designation, intended to be awarded exclusively to Okeanus Science & Technology of Houston, Texas, the sole qualified vendor possessing the proprietary knowledge and legacy expertise necessary for complete winch repair and testing. The contract is structured as a firm fixed-price arrangement with a performance period from December 12, 2025, to December 31, 2025, allowing minimal time for completion of all refurbishment and testing activities. The estimated repair service value will not exceed the simplified acquisition threshold, though the exact award amount is not publicly disclosed. All work will be performed at the contractor's facility, with the refurbished winch subsequently returned to the Acoustic Research Detachment in Bayview, Idaho. The place of performance is designated as Westlake, Maryland 20817, with the government furnishing the SEAMAC Array Winch as government property requiring careful inventory documentation and tracking throughout the contract period.
